The Sheep Detectives (PG): 5th to 7th June

Every night, a shepherd reads murder mystery novels aloud to his beloved sheep, assuming they can’t possibly understand, but pretending they can. Until one day, when a mysterious incident suddenly disrupts life on the farm, the sheep realise they must now become detectives themselves. As they follow every clue and create their own list of human suspects, they also prove even sheep can be brilliant crime-solvers.

“Here is a murder mystery that is like a cross between Babe and The Thursday Murder Club… An entertaining tale of ovine law enforcement.” – The Guardian

“Talking sheep catch a killer in the cosiest, fluffiest crime thriller imaginable!” – The Telegraph

“It generates plenty of fun for the whole flock, and the more it leans into its madness the more it succeeds.” – Radio Times

“Not only is ‘The Sheep Detectives’ delightful, but it’s funny and emotionally complex and, dare I say, unusually deferential toward the noble sheep, frequently cast as brain-dead losers in cinema’s barnyards.” – New York Post
