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?

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

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

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.

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

I watched both episodes last night and quite enjoyed them.

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

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