    I think it's a remake of Murder She Wrote, but with a more diverse cast and crew.

    One of the best things on TV ever.

    stick with it. once you get your ear in, as it were, and work out who's who and the lingo, it's well worth it.

    on series 2 at the mo, and still gripping stuff.

    Download each Series and watch them when you want.

    What's sky plus got to do with it?

    I haven't got sky plus and I can watch them perfectly fine. You are allowed to watch TV programmes at the scheduled time you know. You haven't got to Sky plus everything.

    At 11:20?

    Some of us have to get up in a morning you know - and I don't feel like watching a programme 5 consecutive evenings

    Am in trouble for forgetting to record part 3 for Maureen.

    Why can't women do it themselves ? Always blaming blokes for not putting it in properly.

    It's on after my bedtime and I'm not interested in watching it. That's why I forgot. She can do it herself but she'd rather blame me for getting it wrong. Women !

    Ah right

    So going to bed after midnight every night when I get up at 6 would really make me effective at work!

    I only said I thought the scheduling by the BBC was very poor and not conducive to getting a good audience for it.
