Professor Jasper Tempest, known to his students as Professor T. – is an expert for psychological criminology at the University of Cambridge University. The criminologist with OCD and an overbearing mother, advises the police.
But working with Professor T. is difficult because of his own minor psychological disorders. He innocently insults everybody around him, immediately identifies the weaknesses of a person, and his observations are annoyingly always right. But his students, Lisa and Barney are unperturbed and build an unbeatable team with Professor T. The Chief Commissioner disapproves and feels left out. The head of the criminal investigation department considers T’s collaboration with mixed feelings because she and T were once a couple.
The TV drama Professor T. began on Belgian TV in 2015 and was remade for German TV in 2017, then remade in French, and now the UK is taking its turn at an English version airing on ITV.
Stars: Ben Miller, Emma Naomi, and Barney White.
American audiences may know Ben Miller as DI Richard Poole from Death in Paradise, or Lord Featherington in Bridgerton, and many other shows airing on PBS.
