Lovejoy

Golden Globe® winner Ian McShane (Deadwood) exudes rakish charm as "the James Bond of antiques dealers" (New York Times) in these cult-favorite mysteries. Despite his knack for spotting rare finds among rubbish, Lovejoy can't stay out of trouble, often getting snared in the underbelly of the antiques industry. Phyllis Logan (Downton Abbey) costars as his partner in peddling, the lovely Lady Jane.
