Sally Lindsay’s cosy crime series The Madame Blanc Mysteries is coming to Netflix

Starting in August, I can hardly contain my excitement as I eagerly await the arrival of Netflix’s highly anticipated adaptation of Richard Osman’s first Thursday Murder Club novel. However, for enthusiasts of cozy crime, there’s no need to wait that long! You can already indulge in your favorite genre on Netflix itself.

The reason is that within a few days, all four seasons of Sally Lindsay’s well-known series “The Madame Blanc Mysteries,” which initially aired on channel 5, will be added to Netflix’s library. Starting from Wednesday 25th June, the entire show can be streamed online.

The show was developed by Lindsay, working in tandem with acting companion Sue Vincent, and features Lindsay portraying Jean White, a transformed detective from an antiques dealer, using her investigative talents on various mysteries throughout the southern region of France.

The story unfolds in the fictitious town of Sainte Victoire, starting after the demise of Jean’s spouse, Rory. She delves into the circumstances surrounding his death, acting as the investigator for her initial case, before finding herself entangled in a series of other enigmas.

Sue Holderness from Only Fools and Horses plays Judith Lloyd James, a noblewoman in the story. Alex Gaumond from The Franchise appears as Major André Caron, the police chief. Additionally, comedy greats Tony Robinson from Blackadder and Paul Chuckle from ChuckleVision have roles in this production too.

This past year, from March through April, the latest season of the series aired. It’s officially set to make a comeback with a 2025 holiday special.

She stated: “I don’t have a ‘Yes, I’ll leave when I’m at the peak.’ Not at all. I adore it so deeply. I will continue until they ask me to stop, truthfully, because it holds such a unique significance in my life. And it has become such an integral part of ours.
