I have recorded it so I can watch it one my own as DH pffed at it.

We’ve only watched the first episode and I’d have happily left it there. To my surprise DH wants to watch the next one and it was me doing the pff-ing. smile

We watched this series before i think on alibi and loved it. Glad you enjoyed it. Judith Potts and crew are great together.

Watched all 3 series several times on U. There are some really good mysteries on U drama. This is not a murder mystery,Sister Boniface ,Father Brown, Brokenwood can't remember rest of title, Monsieur Spade, recipe for murder etc. Sort of programmes you can watch again and again.

5 has some must have dramas Ellis is brilliant. Some good films .

Walt presents on 4 have brilliant dramas you just have to read the subtitles. Don't bother with the English versions of Professor T the Flemish is far better. Astrid must watch don't bother with English version Patience .

Sunshine murders think on 5 there are 3-4 of them ,Puzzle Lady drama.

Some of the American dramas are good on versions channels all on carch up TV.

U drama can't remember the title but has Timothy Spall in sent in Wales .

Good but it is a repeat. A lot of people me included will have thought it was a new series.

That caught me out too. I thought Series 4 was out but that isn't until next year.

It makes me want to move to beautiful Marlow and have three new best friends -but the murder plots are weak .

I saw one episode once but found it pretty weak. It just didn't 'hold' me.

I thought it was new, but seen all the series on U... It's all on there if you can't wait to see more.

Yes, I enjoyed it too, but you do have to suspend belief because, as usedtobeblonde says, the way they are given information by the police is complete nonsense and would never happen in real life, neither would people walking off when asked by the police to account for their whereabouts, etc.
That aside, it’s an easy watch for an hour or so. I didn’t realise it was a repeat, but as I’d not seen it first time round, that didn’t matter for me.

I watched both episodes last night and quite enjoyed them.

Gran22boys Sat 29-Aug-26 12:29:52

I really enjoyed it. It is lighthearted and easy to watch.

Usedtobeblonde Sat 29-Aug-26 11:45:02

These are repeats.
I call it watchable rubbish, easy on the eye and totally unbelievable.
The amount of input the police allow them and pass on is laughable….. but still I watch it.

It is pleasant to watch, but the dialogue is dire.

I watched the first episode in a two part thriller of The Marlow Murder Club where a man is shot and Judith Potts, amateur sleuth undertakes an investigation with the local vicar's wife and a dog walker. I must confess I really enjoyed it and personally felt the camera work, settings, and plot wove together beautifully. What did other folks think?
