THE MARLOW MURDER CLUB, SEASON 2 (PBS)

The first episode of Season 2 of The Marlow Murder Club begins with Sir Peter Bailey found dead the day before his wedding. Bailey’s much younger nurse turned fiancée, his wayward combative son, his bitter daughter, and his ex-wife on the brink of losing her title are key suspects. A recently updated will (that goes missing) gives everyone a motive for murder.

 Samantha Bond (Downton AbbeyHome Fires) as Judith Potts joined by Jo Martin (Doctor WhoBack to Life) as Suzie Harris and Cara Horgan (The SandmanTraitors) as Becks Starling are the Marlow Murder Club, a trio of true crime enthusiasts who investigate the rash of murders in their community.

The first season of The Marlow Murder Club had four episodes. This second season features six episodes. Diane and I enjoyed the first episode of this new season and will continue watching. GRADE: Incomplete, but trending towards a B+

    For some reason, I couldn’t get interested in the book, but we enjoyed the first series of this, and liked the first episode of series two.

    But where is the review of The Thursday Murder Club?

    I’m not quite sure what Rita Tushingham’s purpose in the show is, other than “,obnoxious foil,” but she is scary-looking.

    Also, as soon as someone tells the police they have something to tell them, tomorrow, you know that “tomorrow” they’ll be dead.

        “I’d inform you now, but I have this appointment with Snavely Whiplash to fulfill at this moment. Hope to see you while still breathing, so I might share this key datum!”

    George, Snavely is alive and well and has just started working for ICE. His first targets: Dudley and Nell.

      Bob, thank WORDPRESS and its demonic spell checker for that silly name! Of course I typed Snidely–it got changed when I looked away…

    I’ve got them recorded but haven’t watched yet. Looking forward to seeing them when I get home from Bouchercon

    Thanks. Did you ever contact Bebe sandstrum about the old books she has? She’s going to Bouchercon and I think she’ll be surprised at how few of the “old guard” still attend

      Maggie, I just de-acquired 100 books last week by donating them to the North Tonawanda Historical Society for their upcoming FALL BOOK SALE. Most of the books were best sellers that I’ll never read again.
