Love this. Glad it's back. It's such an easy show

Just seen a trailer for it, looks like my sort of thing.

Which channel please op?

I’ve never seen or heard of it

hiw many series have you seen @Stressedgiraffe

Drama ch which is 143 on sky

Watched the first episode this week and am hooked. I used to really like The Coroner and was fed right up when that ended but this show has something of the quality of The Coroner about it. Light, fun, enough story and pace to keep your interest, great characters and lovely scenery.

I watched the 2 series on Acorn and looking forward to season 3!

It was on alibi . I've seen 2 seasons. They are good.

Sorry acorn. Used to have a subscription but now stream.

Do you have to pay to stream from Acorn?

Ah great @SomersetTart Loved the coroner both uk and candian one

Wonder how I missed it

Usually watch alibi stuff

I can’t find this on catch up - is it on UKTV play?

I've just found it on channel 20 on Freeview

Drama ch which is 143 on sky
20 on freeview

I don't know. It starts thur 14th

I've downloaded the UKTVPlay app. It's free and has Drama, Dave, W and Yesterday channels.

Am presuming it'll be available on there after it's been shown in real time scheduling as it were.

Thanks @Blondeshavemorefun

Yes I have that app and often watch stuff with a baby over my shoulder

Some good things on it

I'm just watching the Marlowe Murder thingy with Samantha Bond. I'm listening to the audio book too, so that's an interesting experience.

I have set to record this. We watched the Marlow Murder Club last night and really enjoyed it. There are never too many crime dramas on TV IMO.

Is it actually set in Whitstable please?

Whitstable Pearl was filmed in Kent, England from October 2020 to January 202112. The majority of the filming took place in Whitstable, including at the harbour, the yacht club, and the beach. Various scenes were also shot in Margate, the Port of Ramsgate, Dover, and Hernhill

From a search.
Edit. I didn't want that to be a link, but it's determined it will be one.

Annoyed I erroneously put a Philip Marlowe E on the end of the Thames-side location. Your fictional detectives will do that to you 🙄

Yes it is

@Blondeshavemorefun. Excellent! I'm from Whitstable so I shall watch it now.

I always like watching things more when local
