Wasn't it lovely tonight? [sigh]! She won't go to Paris will she? I think she loves him. smile

merlotgran Thu 22-Jan-15 22:15:09

She loved the last one and he came to a sticky end hmm

jinglbellsfrocks Thu 22-Jan-15 22:20:10

Oh shoot! shock

There was a bit at the end where their boss is talking to him saying "she can't go to Paris if I say she's needed here" grin

I'm not so sure his love is reciprocated.

I just love it, old fashioned 'light entertainment', long may it continue.

granjura Fri 23-Jan-15 17:06:55

Agreed, we both really enjoy it.

rockgran Fri 23-Jan-15 17:11:07

Love it!

rosequartz Fri 23-Jan-15 17:30:49

I enjoy it - escapism!

She loves him, she loves him not ....

I think she loved Ben Miller more.
I didn't think anyone could follow him but Humphrey is very endearing.

We enjoy the scenery and the stories but he's a bit annoying when he keeps on repeating all the facts of the case (as if he thinks the viewers are too dim to keep up). I don't think she will go for him. DH gasped with disappointment when she said she was going to Paris!

It is a bit Poirotish - let's gather them all together then the denouement (is that right?)

Deedaa Fri 23-Jan-15 22:36:05

Even DH likes it - and he hardly watches anything! It's so nice to see all that beautiful sunshine when we're in the middle of winter. And we both love the lizard grin

merlotgran Fri 23-Jan-15 22:38:01

DH fancies her mother. Maybe it's the bar though. grin

Ana Fri 23-Jan-15 22:42:47

The Poirotishness is a plus for me - if I miss a bit it'll all be explained at the end! grin

I read recently that this progamme has increased in popularity over the past few weeks, and that is not hard to understand is it? The scenery is lovely, the actors speak so that they can be understood and the story lines are simple, with good acting. I enjoy it every week, knowing full well that the murderer will be uncovered and the world put to rights!

That's it exactly PRINTMISS and perfect for a dark, winter, Thursday evening.

I love this programme too. I don't mind gritty dramas but it is lovely to watch something where there is no swearing or violence and in a wonderful setting. And isn't Camille beautiful? DH likes to think he is above it but I notice he still watches it - he was the same with Gogglebox.

jinglbellsfrocks Sun 08-Feb-15 10:49:41

It's popularity has probably increased with the advent of oh-so-sweet Kris Marshall.

Shame Camille left.

granjura Sun 08-Feb-15 10:51:09

Good clean fun- we both love it.

rosequartz Sun 08-Feb-15 20:47:21

Don't fall for wotshername, although she is very nice.

Wait for Camille!

rockgran Thu 12-Feb-15 22:02:49

If you are going to be murdered I can't think of a better location!

I hope they give the new young officer a personality transplant, at the moment he is a bit of a nonentity.

annodomini Fri 13-Feb-15 09:23:12

It's a bit like Midsommer Murders with sunshine and blue sea.

jinglbellsfrocks Fri 13-Feb-15 09:48:05

I've stopped trying to follow the story. I just look at Kris Marshall.

I think the new young one will be more memorable than the other one. Who I have now quite forgotten. shock confused

There's a very good letter in the new Radio Times this week, something on the lines of 'Don't go to Paris, Camille, haven't you ever watched Spirals?'.
