BBC One Launches Detective Series Ludwig

BBC One is set to premiere 'Ludwig', a comedy-drama starring David Mitchell as John 'Ludwig' Taylor, a reclusive puzzle-setter whose life changes dramatically when his identical twin brother, James, goes missing. In his quest to find James, Ludwig assumes his brother's identity, stepping into the demanding role of a family man and respected Detective Chief Inspector in Cambridge. The series features a strong supporting cast, including Anna Maxwell Martin as Lucy Betts-Taylor, Ludwig's sister-in-law, along with Dipo Ola, Gerran Howell, and Ralph Ineson among others. Ludwig's unique ability to see the world as a series of puzzles may help him navigate the challenges of both crime-solving and family life. With its blend of humor and mystery, 'Ludwig' is expected to engage audiences when it debuts on BBC One and iPlayer this Autumn. The show is produced by Big Talk Studios in association with That Mitchell And Webb Company.
