NEW CRIME DRAMA The Marlow Murder Club Wednesday & Thursday, 8pm, Drama (box set, UKTV Play)
As the creator of Caribbean-set crime drama Death in Paradise, writer Robert Thorogood has shown that even the most idyllic location can be a hotbed for murder. Now, in Drama’s new series, he’s turning his attention to the dark underbelly of a picturepostcard Home Counties town.
Two-parter The Marlow Murder Club is adapted by Thorogood – who lives in Marlow – from his own bestselling series of novels and centres on spirited crossword setter and retired archaeologist Judith Potts (Samantha Bond).
When she goes for her regular swim in the River Thames one evening and hears a gunshot, Judith becomes certain her neighbour, an art-gallery owner, has been murdered.
