Transporting us to the sunnier climes of Mallorca, the series is a real tonic for those dreaming of Mallorca allowing a chance to sit back and enjoy a slice of this magical island.

If you’ve not seen The Mallorca Files yet, there’s plenty of time to catch-up on the first two series on BBC’s iPlayer and on Amazon Prime Video.

Produced by Clerkenwell Films and Cosmopolitan Pictures in conjunction with BBC Studios and Amazon MGM Studios, The Mallorca Files offers a breezy antidote to the trend for dark crime dramas that are currently on our screens.

Set exclusively on the island of Mallorca, the original 10-part BBC daytime drama written by Dan Sefton, features an unlikely crime-fighting duo.

Miranda Blake (actor Elen Rhys), an uptight workaholic British cop, is partnered with Max Winter (Julian Looman ), a laid-back German policeman.  In the opening episode, DC Blake is in Mallorca to escort a witness’s return to the UK, but when things don’t go according to plan, she is asked to remain in Mallorca.

This is a feel-good cop show with good old fashioned chases and capers combined with clever wit and glorious scenery.

With a new crime to solve in each episode, as the series moves on, we see the partnership developing between Max and Miranda and a heavy dose of  ‘will they : won’t they’.  A classic in the making.

Ben Donald, Executive Producer says “when Miranda is posted here, her character is  very buttoned up, but quickly we begin to explore every aspect of the island through her eyes, and she soon grows to love it. We want viewers to feel the same” . The location shoots, without question, showcase the island beautifully.

Bryn Higgins, who directs several of the episodes, observes “there are three main characters in the series, Miranda, Max and Mallorca”.

From the outset we are spoilt with several driving scenes through the old town of Palma, a coffee stop in Plaça de Cort, breathtaking aerial coastal scenes and, in later episodes, a trip out to the Tramuntana mountains to visit one of Mallorca many vineyards.  Max and Miranda are even filmed taking a ride on the Sóller train. A must-do for any visitor to the island.

In Season Three, amid high-stakes adventures, treasure hunts, arson, kidnappings, and murders, Max and Miranda’s personal tensions and odd-couple partnership are put to the test. Overseeing their cases is the mercurial and volatile Inés Villegas (María Fernández Ache, Lost in Karastan).

Season three plays host to an array of international guest stars including Enrique Arce (Money Heist), Philippe Brenninkmeyer (Mad Men), Charlie Higson (The Fast Show), Michael Jibson (Bodies), David Mora (Memento Mori), Elena Saurel (Buffering), and Leonor Watling (Cities).

Ben Donald, executive producer of The Mallorca Files, said, “Introducing global audiences to the stunning island of Mallorca and the world of Miranda and Max during the first two seasons of The Mallorca Files was a blast.

Elen and Julian created two engaging and loveable characters that found a special place in the hearts of millions of international viewers.
