Vienna Blood
BBC TWO, 9.00PM
The first of three adaptations of Frank Tallis’s popular crime novels based in belle époque Vienna of the 1890s stars Matthew Beard as Max, a brilliant student of Freud, who takes up crime-solving with local cop DI Rheinhardt (Jürgen Maurer). Tonight’s opulently produced but stodgy opener offers a new twist on the locked-room mystery.
