Houdini and Doyle is a British-Canadian television drama series based on the friendship of Harry Houdini and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. A 10-episode first season was ordered by Fox in the United States, ITV in the United Kingdom, and Global in Canada.[1] The pilot episode was written by co-creators David Hoselton and David Titcher.[1] The first episode was broadcast on ITV on Sunday 13 March 2016.[2]

Premise

Harry Houdini is a skeptic who doesn't believe anything unless he can see it himself. Dr. Arthur Conan Doyle is a believer who wants to prove that the supernatural is real. The drama opens in 1900, shortly after the publication of Doyle's The Great Boer War. Houdini and Doyle become involved in the investigation of several mysterious deaths. They argue over whether the causes are natural or supernatural, and often wager on the cause, which causes their police liaison, Constable Stratton, some embarrassment.

Cast

Production

The series was filmed on two stages at The Space Project in Manchester.[7]
