Next week Netflix will delve in to the mind-bending world of Si Spencer’s graphic novel Bodies with a new eight-part series. Four detectives. Four timelines. One body. The series will launch globally on the streamer on October 19, 2023.
When a body – the same body – is found on Longharvest Lane in London’s East End in 1890, 1941, 2023 and 2053, one detective from each period must investigate. As connections are drawn across the decades, the detectives soon discover their investigations are linked, and an enigmatic political leader – Elisa Mannix (Stephen Graham) – becomes increasingly central. Did he have a part to play in the murder? Or is something far more sinister at play? To solve the mystery, our four detective must somehow collaborate and uncover a conspiracy spanning over 150 years.

Created for TV by Paul Tomalin and based on the graphic novel by Si Spencer, Bodies stars Jacob Fortune-Lloyd, Shira Haas, Amaka Okafor, Kyle Soller and Stephen Graham. The eight-part series will stream from October 19, 2023.
