If you can get to episode six you deserve a medal

This is a bargain basement C5 production shot and set in sunny Malta, which is all good. Not so good was the awful script full of stock characters and soapy scenes that we've all seen before umpteen times. This is a murder mystery, problem was I didn't care about any of the characters..

As a show it was quite badly produced and directed. Tonally it veered between comedy, murder-mystery and romcom, it certainly wasn't a thriller. The direction was a bit off with a lot of odd angles and cuts. The cheesy plinky-plonky score added nothing but irritation.

It was dull and the script and acting were well below par. One you can safely give a swerve.

I actually enjoyed this

I actually enjoyed this! Reading the reviews on here would have put me off, but I found it very entertaining. It was a real whodunnit and it kept me guessing until the end. The ending obviously wasn't as tidy as some people would have liked but I felt it left a door open to a second series, which I'd love to see.

The scenery was beautiful and certainly added glamour to the series. I felt the characters were well written with strengths and flaws and the acting certainly wasn't the worst by any means.

The plot had twists and turns and it certainly kept me entertained.

It's a shame is has so many poor reviews because I feel it deserves better.

Waste of time

I was initially looking forward to this, not expecting too much, just wanting something to binge watch on the now darkening evenings. I like the actors and was enjoying it for the most part. I got to episode 5 and couldn't wait for the final. It was light with some twists and turns, some that were so obvious, but playing a guessing game with myself, I was so excited for the end result. Well.....that's 6 hours I won't get back, the ending was TERRIBLE, so many questions unanswered and no sense to the ending. Really wish I hadn't bothered watching, I was so frustrated 😫 I rarely review TV programmes but please don't waste your time on this one.

Avoid

Avoid this series like the plague, absolutely terrible script, unfortunately the acting is even more terrible. At no time does the plot make any sense, it seems to consist of quaffing large glasses of red wine, every other comment being about sex then a big row then everyone all friends again , and so it goes on around and around.

It takes about one minute into the first episode to realise this is a must miss, it made me miss the days of the test card being screened.

Anyway that's enough of the goods points !

The only plus side to it is that as it is a channel 5 production it means it didnt come out of license fee money.

poor at best!

Well, I wish I had looked at imdbs rating for this drama before I started watching it and I would have saved several hours of my life. It's very average at best. There's nothing wrong with the individual actors, it's just not very well written, so they struggle from a get-go. I actually thought that this was going to be a bit of a comedy with 3 meddling, middle-aged ladies, pretending to be detectives. For a family who was supposedly close with three brothers in a business they have a huge amount of secrets that suddenly come out of the woodwork , just not very believable!!!!!

The only thing that saves this are the beautiful landscapes of Malta.
