Synopsis
Bergerac (2025) is a British crime series you can watch online on iFILM — a darker return for a detective TV first made famous back in the 1980s. Jim Bergerac used to put criminals away. Then his wife died, and the drink moved in to fill the gap.
What pulls him back isn't willpower but a corpse: a wealthy woman is murdered on Jersey, and the only mind sharp enough to read it is the one Jim drowned. So he claws his way sober while prying open a rich family's secrets and the wreckage of his own collapse — all under the cold eye of colleagues who'd rather he stayed retired. Damien Molony plays the wrecked investigator, with Robert Gilbert, Pippa Haywood and Philip Glenister rounding out the island.
Directors Colm McCarthy and Sean Spencer rebuild the long-running original — eight years on the air across the 1980s — into something moodier and more psychological. The hook isn't really whodunit; it's whether the detective can reassemble himself before the case buries him. Good for fans of slow Nordic noir relocated to warmer water.
