History

Historical Context

ITV’s broadcast of Prime Suspect 4 on 7 May 1995 added a gritty, female-led police storyline to British TV. Decades later, Paramount+ leverages that formula, returning Tom Hardy and Helen Mirren in MobLand Season 2 (2026) to attract subscribers with established star power. The trend shows streaming services borrowing proven crime-drama templates to drive growth.
