Have you seen the remake yet with Rowan Atkinson (Black Adder) playing Inspector Maigret? I took a chance and watched it, and I was extremely pleasantly surprised to see Rowan Atkinson playing the part very convincingly.

Yeap. We’ve seen Atkinson’s take on Maigret on BritBox. The episodes are quite good with great production values and he’s convincing in the role. Regrettably, it’s like watching any other actor play Sherlock Holmes other than Jeremy Brett. Michael Gambon owned that role. Ever since I introduced my wife to “Layer Cake,” she’s wanted to watch him in everything save for Harry Potter, which we never got into. If I want fantasy, I’ll watch Peter Jackson’s “Lord of the Rings” trilogy.
