Up The Creek: A Jonathan Creek Podcast

RKG

Every great Jonathan Creek episode consists of three parts or acts: The Effect, The Method, and The Reveal. There’s also a fair amount of grot, things that really shouldn’t be said anymore, and one of television’s most enduring romances.

Join Gav Murphy and Daniel Krupa as they break down all 32 episodes of Jonathan Creek, the classic British TV show about a magician’s assistant who solves impossible crimes, which they watched religiously as kids (and now, as adults).

Up The Creek is the definitive Jonathan Creek companion.
