Mayday

Fun mystery/whodunit with just a hint of druidic magic. Packed full of great actors all possibly guilty of something if not murder. If you like Brit murder mysteries, you'll love this.

Through the first four episodes of this five-parter, it seemed like any of several characters could have killed the May Queen. That the solution eventually comes through some mystical nonsense throws the previous four hours into the dustbin. What a disappointment.

I just across this series on Amazon Prime and I have to say that if you keep in mind it's described as a fantasy, mystery then all these other negative comments are just touch over-thinking! Don't analyze it just enjoy it! Contrary to a lot of the other posts I loved the ending!!

I came here to see if IMDb could suggest something similar to this. It's been about a year since I watched it and I still remember how good it was. I see other ratings range from 1 to 10, so there's obviously quite a difference of opinion. I think it's unfair that some reviewers gave it a low rating because they expected a straight-forward police procedural and got something else. My only quibble was that the teenagers seemed a little older than the story said, and apart from that I thought it was fabulous and unpredictable, and I was satisfied with the ending. I strongly recommend it. Watch with an open mind, and pay attention.

Something that could have been very good deteriorated into a farce.

It seems that the scriptwriters had no idea where to go and decided to throw in a, totally unnecessary, supernatural element. And, just to aggravate the viewer, even more, they left many, many questions unanswered. At the end, we sat there saying "what the hell just happened?".
