Product Information

The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency celebrates Botswana, "the finest place on God's Earth," as surely as a womans intuition. Precious Ramotswe (Grammy-winning singer Jill Scott) ,after her father dies, sells his cows and opens an agency, because she "wants to do good." So, the "traditionally built woman" (in the words of Anthony McCall Smith, who wrote nine books about her) leases the old Gabarone post office, hires hyperefficient secretary Grace Makutsi (Anika Noni Rose, Dreamgirls), and gets down to business. With sassy hairdresser BK (Desmond Dube Hotel Rwanda) and smitten mechanic JLB Matekoni (Lucian Msamati) cheering her on, Mma Ramotswe becomes a combination detective/feminist icon, sharing "endless cups of red bush tea" with her clients, encouraging women to take charge of their lives, and tackling tricky cases involving missing persons, duplicitous daddies, dangerous dentists, and unfaithful spouses (MI5's David Oyelowo plays one of them). Produced for the BBC/HBO and filmed in Africa, the first season eschews gunplay and profanity for a fresh take on the smalltown mystery series. Like Agatha Christie's Marple, but with fewer dead bodies, Mma Ramotswe depends more on her wits than technology.

Fantastic realistic detective series set in Botswana, Africa
A wonderful series set in Botswana, Africa with interesting real-life type situations and fantastic scenery of the bush and towns. The cast is top rate and very authentic. Pity a second series was never made.

Fabulous African humour and wit.
Relax - Mma Ramotswe will solve the complicated case while her secretary remains delightfully officious and all facets of Africa are enjoyed by actors and viewers too.
