A family’s dark history resurfaces in this inspector-led crime drama streaming right now

A new crime drama, led by a French-Canadian inspector, is now available for streaming – and could be your next obsession. The Orchard is actually the third installment in the The Wall series, and first appeared in 2022.

The series centers around detective Céline Trudeau (Isabel Richer) who comes back to her Quebec hometown when a skeleton is found on her uncle’s property. She teams up with police officer Alexandre Théberge (Alexandre Landry) and local officer Johnny (Didier Lucien) to investigate the discovery.

Viewers in the UK can watch the series tonight at 9pm on More4. After the initial broadcast, all episodes will become available on Channel 4 streaming.

The Wall started in 2019 with its first season, Cover Your Tracks. This was then followed by The Chateau Murders two years later. The story begins when Céline is asked to travel from Quebec City to a mining town to solve the murder of a dancer who also worked as a prostitute.

I’ve been checking out the reviews, and most people seem to really like the show. Someone on IMDb even called it an “easy binge watch“, which is exactly what I look for! Definitely sounds like something I need to add to my list.

“Some will say it is predictable, and in some ways it could easily be seen that way, but it has enough red herrings to make it hard to work out. Plenty of suspects like any good whodunnit,” they added.

One reviewer described it as a quickly moving detective show brimming with suspenseful moments, unexpected plot twists, and is simple to follow while still being a well-made production.

One viewer in three expressed being “very pleasantly surprised” by the show, explaining: “The misleading clues and how the investigation unfolds create a satisfying character development and a powerful climax, which I appreciate more than a shocking, unexpected twist.”

Hey, if you’re like me and love a good, twisty crime drama, I’ve put together a list of shows you really should check out. And if you’re in the mood for something a little different, I also have a round-up of Nordic noir shows that are totally worth watching. Seriously, you won’t be disappointed!

The Wall: The Orchard starts tonight on More4 at 9pm, and you’ll also be able to watch it on Channel 4 afterwards.

The new edition of Living Legends is here! Buy Gaga in newsagents or online, priced at just £8.99.
