"The Riddle"
An ambitious London sports journalist, an enigmatic tramp and a
police press officer team up to solve a series of murders that
follow the discovery of an unpublished manuscript by Charles Dickens
in a present day Thames-side pub.
THE RIDDLE: Smart contemporary London mystery thriller with a
Dickensian twist. When the London landlady of a Thames-side pub is
murdered following her discovery of an unpublished Charles Dickens
manuscript in her pub cellar, an unusual trio team up to
investigate. Mike (Vinnie Jones) is an ambitious tabloid sports
reporter determined to make a name for himself as an investigative
journalist. He is helped by Kate, a police press officer (Julie Cox)
and by an eccentric beach-combing tramp (Derek Jacobi) who stalks
the Thames foreshore at low tide. Together they track down the
manuscript and as they study it we are transported back into the
world of Charles Dickens (also played by Derek Jacobi). Mike becomes
obsessed with solving not just the modern murder, but also a century-
old killing described in the pages of the long lost book. Only when
they unlock the riddle of the manuscript are they able to solve the
present-day crime, facing opposition along the way from a greedy
detective (PH Moriarty), a self-important publisher (Vanessa
Redgrave) and a ruthless construction company boss (Jason Flemyng).
