The TVI Take
Anthony Horowitz's ITV detective series set in Hastings during World War II — Michael Kitchen as DCS Christopher Foyle solving wartime crimes (black-market profiteering, refugee fraud, conscientious-objector murders) while the larger conflict rages around the South Coast. The structural commitment to letting historical specificity be the actual subject of each episode is the property's distinctive achievement; the wartime-and-postwar-Britain anthropological rendering is documentary-grade.
