    Murder In The City, Very Good!

    I am amazed at the comment by Mr.Asher as to Kris Marshall not being a good "serious" actor!, I completely disagree as anyone who saw Kris in "The Four Feathers" saw just how Excellent an actor he is!. Murder In The City I really enjoyed, though I think that Amanda Donohue's character was far too serious a role, and that this kind of series does better with a lot of outside action shots. Kris Marshall is a very sexy man and should be given a part where we see more of Kris as himself, as for humour? its the hardest role to play... So a sexy, exciting and at times humorous role for Kris Marshall would be right up his street and played to perfection!. Keep up the Grrreat work Kris!.

    Great Writing

    This is the first tv series I can't determine the plot in 5 minutes.

    Above decent murder mystery series

    I don't think it is the best ever murder mystery series I have seen, this is coming from someone who loves Inspector Morse, A Touch of Frost and Agatha Christie: Poirot. While not as good as the above titles, Murder City was interesting and actually above decent. There may be some draggy parts once in a while and in my opinion, this series should have lasted longer, but the story lines were suspenseful and gripping, and the writing was excellent. The series visually is very stylish, and the music is good. And I for one liked the acting, Amanda Donahoe is wonderful as always and Kris Marshall is delightful in his well-written role. I also really enjoyed the chemistry between the two. Overall, a very well done if short lived series. 9/10 Bethany Cox

    Murder City should have had more episodes

    I love British detective/murder shows. There are many more that rate higher than this one. But, this was a delight to watch. I am a big Kris Marshall fan and the"ginger beanpole" did not disappoint. My favorite character though was DCI Turner played brilliantly by Tim Woodward. He was witty and quick with responses and I loved when he called Laura Main, DC Alison Bain the "Scottish girl". His character was well written and I wish he had had more screen time.

    Murder City could be revived today with new characters and new stories. But, the writing should remain the same. The witty banter between the main characters is perfect!

    An Anglophilic Murder Fan's wet dream

    I have watched them all and can't get enough. At first I thought, well it's no Happy Valley or a Scott and Bailey, but after a few episodes I was hooked. Bigger on crime than personality, and very interesting crimes each solved in its own episode. I am only sorry for myself that I have watched them all.
