BritBox March 2024 Highlights; Obituary, Hullraisers Season 2 & More
This March, BritBox is delivering a stellar lineup of content that will surely captivate audiences. Among the highlights are Obituary, Why Didn’t They Ask Evans?, and Hullraisers.
Obituary is a unique blend of dark comedy, crime, and drama. The series follows Elvira Clancy, a 24-year-old obituarist in a small town who turns to murder when her work runs dry. Paid per obituary, Elvira discovers a hidden bloodlust within herself as she cleverly dispatches the town’s unpleasant residents while making their deaths appear accidental. However, things take an unexpected turn when the paper hires a new crime correspondent with a fascination for conspiracy theories.
Starring Siobhán Cullen (Origin, The Dry), Michael Smiley (Luther, The Curse), and Ronan Raftery (Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, The Siege of Jadotville), Obituary promises an intriguing and darkly comedic viewing experience. Look out for its streaming premiere on BritBox on March 28th.
For fans of Agatha Christie’s mysteries, BritBox presents Why Didn’t They Ask Evans?. This crime drama revolves around Bobby Jones, who stumbles upon a dying man near a cliff and embarks on a quest to unravel the mystery behind his final words. Joining him in this potential murder investigation is Lady Frances. With its witty storytelling and compelling performances by Will Poulter (The Bear, Guardians of the Galaxy V3), Lucy Boynton (Bohemian Rhapsody, Murder on the Orient Express), and Daniel Ings (The Crown, Sex Education), Why Didn’t They Ask Evans? is set to entertain viewers when it streams on BritBox starting March 14th.
On the lighter side of things is Hullraisers Season 2. This comedy series follows three women living in Hull, Yorkshire – self-described actress Toni, her sister Paula, and her best friend Rana – as they navigate the highs and lows of life, friendship, and family. With an ensemble cast featuring Leah Brotherhead (Bridgerton, Zomboat!), Sinead Matthews (The Crown, Pride & Prejudice), and BAFTA nominee Taj Atwal (Line of Duty, Truth Seekers), Hullraisers Season 2 promises plenty of laughter and heartwarming moments. Tune in to BritBox on March 21st to catch all the fun.
