I know what you mean, it's not very professional. No one expects a formal suit but it's a bit silly when the people they interview/suspect have more clothes on than her, and they are usually supposed to be on holiday!

I'm enjoying it too - I missed a lot of last series and never bothered to catch up, but

...have enjoyed this series so far. I always think it's odd when Don Warrington speaks though - I never think of him having that accent!

(And yes, I know that's the point of acting Grin)

It's great. Just what we need during the winter months - blue skies, sand and a good whodunnit, brilliantly acted. Soooooo relaxing!

And although I don't mind swearing at all - can't hardly mind as I swear at times ....

But

Nice to have a drama that has no swearing in it

Blush I was convinced she'd poisoned herself

I wish that girl would put her thighs away!

Last week I thought for a bit that they were suggesting Humph has a romance with Camille's mum.

Poor old Dwayne having his heros turn out like that Sad

I thought it was the doctor tonight, mainly because I thought they had already had a murdering priest in previous series. With a skeleton. But now I think more maybe that was a doctor.

Wasn't that a teacher? He kept the skeleton of his wife in the classroom and his MIL killed herself in a way to frame him for her murder?

This is a wonderful programme, how crime programmes should be. Engaging characters, fast moving plot, a proper ending and I never think "wtf was that about?" at the end, and the policeman is sane and not constantly having affairs with the suspects.

Really enjoying this series. My DH thinks lady detective is a wonderful,actress... .

My ds noticed a continuity error in the series. In the second programme(?), the story feature the young detective being scared of water. However, the following week, he quite happily jumped in a powerboat and travelled to an island!

I think Humphrey has really made the part his own now, and I really enjoy it. It's a harmless, sunny Midsomer Murder/Lewis/morse etc

We play a game that you have to nominate the murderer at the beginning of the show. I'm on a 80% success rate.

I said priest. Pure guess work. He looked dodgy !

Love this programme as simple but good and clever

Always seems to be windy there tho

And sometimes they say no mobile phone signal esp in first series when Ben miller wanted to go home but couldn't as waiting for signal to call LONDON

Yet their phones often ring and obv got a text this week

I think it's probably filmed in rainy season as the skies are often quite dark and, as pp said, it's windy.

The lizard isn't in it much anymore.

Watched on catch-up and fell asleep. Sums up this series for me I'm afraid. I think the Kris Marshall has had slightly less "buffoonery" situations that last series as they used to annoy me so much.

Still only worth watching for the scenery.

I always record the programme as I'm guaranteed to fall asleep for the last 20 mins and wake up as the final credits roll, but I always catch up next day, love the scenery too.

This week's episode was a bit more serious but I prefer it that way.
