Ludwig review: comedy crime drama is a Kettle Chip off several old blocks
Puzzles are central to Ludwig, BBC1’s new comedy drama, yet it doesn’t need much head-scratching and pen-sucking to work out why BBC commissioners gave it the green light. Consider its components. It is set in Cambridge, lovely Cambridge. The main character is an eccentric type who lives alone. He solves crosswords, and sets them too, under the pen name of Ludwig. Ticking all those Morse boxes there.
