Downton Abbey fans who miss the show’s lavish costuming can feast their eyes on Miss Fisher’s enviable wardrobe.
. The synopsis for the series, much like its twee title, is deceptively frothy: Miss Phryne Fisher is an heiress-turned-amateur detective who—armed with a tiny gold gun and a bob to rival Louise Brooks—solves murder mysteries in 1920s Australia, as she does in. But despite that quaint description, the show itself feels modern, with compelling mysteries, clever solutions, and a heroine as emotionally complex as she is intellectually competent.
now available to stream, there’s no better time to start watching, and no better episode to start than “Murder on the Ballarat Train,” the second episode of the first season in the series. Like Agatha Christie’s, “Murder on the Ballarat Train” is a whodunnit set on a train, but as the episode progresses, it becomes clear that Phryne Fisher is no gender-flipped Hercule Poirot as she bucks any number of fictional detective stereotypes.
Wealthy Miss Fisher enjoys her material comforts and flaunts social norms with her sexually liberated spinsterhood, appearing in no fewer thanfans who miss the show’s lavish costuming should be sated. And, as almost everymystery comes with its own tryst, her flavor of the episode is a med student named Lindsay .
Miss Fisher is charming without being cynical, using her social maneuvering to aid her in her investigations, and unlike solitary antiheroes, she has a healthy sense of team spirit. She has ample opportunity to demonstrate those skills and more when her “fun” excursion quickly escalates into a murder mystery. She is inquisitive and observant, as evidenced by how she decides to investigate the mysterious noise she hears from her train compartment.
