Masterpiece's evil twin Masterpiece Mystery! has made murder a Sunday night routine for decades, and many of the mini-series broadcast by the show have become television classics, like Foyle's War, The Inspector Lynley Mysteries and Inspector Morse. Careering from the twelfth century with Cadfael, to World War II with Foyle's War, to Victorian England with Sherlock Holmes, and to modern times with The Inspector Lynley Mysteries, the series is perfect for those who like a little blood with their social history. Learn more about the esteemed inspectors of Masterpiece Mystery!, including Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, and Hetty Wainthropp at the official web site.

As of June 2008, award-winning actor Alan Cumming became host of Masterpiece Mystery!, following in the footsteps of the likes of Diana Rigg and Vincent Price. Find out more about the history of the series.
