Women in Blue to Celebrity Send Off: the seven best shows to stream this week

The warm, likable tale of Mexican women joining the police to catch a serial killer, plus Shaun Ryder asks Bez to plan his funeral – with predictably eccentric results

Mexico City, 1971. A serial killer known as the Undresser is murdering women and the police are nowhere near catching him. With the situation becoming politically difficult, a plan is hatched: women are invited to join the police. It’s a publicity stunt, but the force hope it will take the heat off them for a while. Based on real events, this series tells the story of four of the recruits: Gabina, Maria, Ángeles and Valentina, who are all, in different ways, chafing against the patriarchy. As the Undresser continues his rampage, they glimpse the possibility of redemption by catching him. It’s occasionally melodramatic and not particularly subtle, but it is a warm, likable story.
