Do you want a story with a strong female protagonist that directly addresses the value of queer identity and culture, as well as the way LGBTQ+ issues interact and intersect with religion? A story with a strong sense of justice that paves a clear path forward for queer youth in a way that's powerfully affecting? A story whose vivid and compelling portrayal of counterculture will stick in your head for years to come (and maybe even give you the urge to try it yourself)? A story that emphasizes how essential it is to prioritize human life and wellbeing over the toxic lies and fantasies promoted by religious leaders? A story that brings together people from very different backgrounds and unites them behind a common cause beneficial to all? This is the rare adaptation that's both faithful and better than the original. You'll have to see it to believe it!

if you like deaths, drama and a quirky ensemble cast, you’ll love this gripping British fantasy murder mystery! there’s diversity galore in the main cast: lots of Black and Asian characters, a woman with a stammer, a war veteran, two gay men and a lesbian detective – all canon! Headed up by the most iconic strong female protagonist (who talks to an owl??) you’ll fall in love with relateable characters with true-to-life stories of representation. there’s potential for a toxic yuri plotline involving a murderous Irish woman with a tragic backstory and a secret barrister! as family connections are revealed, beasts are slain and magic powers come in handy, will our characters give in to capitalist greed, or will found family win out in the end? watch to find out……
