Based on the novels by Australian author Kerry Greenwood, Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries is a 1920s-set detective drama following the seductive lady sleuth Phryne Fisher. The show is from Every Cloud Productions for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) and ALL3MEDIA International has taken it out to the international market.
Fiona Eagger and Deb Cox, co-founders of Every Cloud Productions, have been very much involved in crafting the overall look, feel and tone of the series. Eagger and Cox are both producers on the show, and Cox also leads the writing team. They share with us the process of developing a character like Phryne, bringing a modern attitude to the period piece.
