Once it been on tv it's fair game @martinisforeveryone

Yeah, I know, but I probably need a gentle nudge to recall exactly what I was watching. I've spent the winter watching a hell of a lot of TV and sometimes it all starts to meld into one 😂

I checked, it was the kind of Robin Hood storyline. To be honest, I'm focussing less on the crime and more on Pearl and Mike McGuire's chats, which I like.

It's on Drama. So should be available on UKTV.

2 was about random acts of kindness

Pearl is hired to look into a large amount of money left in her mailbox

E4 tonight

A young widow hired Pearl to investigate when she gets an anon note claiming her dh didn't take his life 7yrs ago

Not sure what this will be like as dh took his own life so I'm always wary about suicide things on tv

Just watching tonight's episode and there's the girl from Cuckoo! Small world 🤣

You beat me to it

Just about to say the same thing 😂

Hi everyone. I'm the author of the Whitstable Pearl books which the series is based on and I'm an executive producer of the show, so I'm really pleased to hear that you have been enjoying it so far. Just to give full information, Seasons 1 and 2 of Whitstable Pearl first streamed on the subscription channel Acorn TV and are still doing so, together with a 30 minute feature on the making of the series. Season 1 is currently showing on the Drama channel (Freeview channel 20 and on Sky 143) with the 6th of 6 episodes going out this Thursday 18th April - but you can catch up with all the episodes so far on UKTV Play (also Freeview). At some point, Season 2 will also go out on Drama but I don't yet have a date for that. We are currently filming Season 3 in the studio and in Whitstable. There are 9 books in my Whitstable Pearl series with the 10th, Murder at the Allotment due for publication in May with a launch event at Whitstable's literary festival, WhitLit, with all profits (and from any book sales on the night) going to a local charity. If you would like to come along, details are on this poster. (Tickets £12 from www.ticketsource.co.uk/whitlit and if you would like more information about the books and the TV series, you can always go to my website: www.juliewassmer.com where there's a Locations section of some fab photos of all the settings I've used so far for the books. 🙂Best wishes, Julie Wassmer

Thanks Julia

I'm Enjoying

Love a murder mystery detective series

When a 30yr Skeleton with a very personal Connection to Pearl (wondering if her dad?) washed up in whitstable , it threatens her budding romance with Mike

Now watching the first episode. The hotel is the Walpole Bay in Margate. I recognise the lift from when I stayed there!

Enjoy @Elderflower14 I really liked

Ans think there is a s2 but will wait for it and not hunt and binge

Series 3 is currently in production too.

Have only just seen this thread.

I've really enjoyed Series 1.
I assumed it was older as it was on 'Drama'. I just randomly came across it on Virgin Catch up.
Will look forward to when we can see Series 2.
How exciting to get inside knowledge. Thanks @Blondeshavemorefun

We've just got tickets to Julie Wassmer in Conversation at WhitLit in Whitstable next week! Very excited!

Enjoyed last night's, will be watching each week. Although I did guess the villain very early on!

Just watched Ep 2 of Series 2... Was that Westgate seafront at the end??

Hi everyone, just thought I'd let you know that TV Times for this week has announced that the 2nd season of Whitstable Pearl will begin airing on Freeview (Drama channel) from 25 July. Enjoy.
