Hey, great to be back. All right, so see how they run is in a lot of ways a very

traditional mystery. It starts off with a mysterious murder behind the scenes of a London production

of Agatha Christie's The Mouse Trap. Just as a possible film adaptation is being considered

Inspector Stopperd played by Sam Rockwell, reluctantly teams up with young trainee Constable

Stalker, played by Sursha Ronan, to get to the bottom of the case. They look into suspects,

including the actors, the writer, some of the theater crew, the producer, even Stopperd's own past

comes into the story at one point. Some of the characters are based on real people, many aren't.

The cast includes Ruth Wilson as producer, Petula Spencer, Harris Dickinson as dashing leading

man Richard Dickie Attenborough, Pearl Chanda as leading lady Sheila Sim, Adrian Brody as American

film director Leo Coppernik, and David O'Yellowow as writer, Mervyn Cocker-Norris.
