Sherlock Holmes takes a backseat in this new Netflix series, where a group of street kids solve crimes for the master sleuth himself.

From creator Tom Bidwell (Watership Down), The Irregulars follows a band of misfit street kids in Victorian London, hired by Dr. Watson to snoop out clues for Sherlock Holmes. It’s a dream project for Bidwell, who told BBC that he’d been working on it for over 10 years and was was inspired by the fact Sherlock Holmes used a group of street kids to help him gather clues.
