Murder by the Sea

The story tellers are great, the cases interesting but I avoid watching purely because the music is awful!! The theme tune I guess is meant to be mood setting for the seaside settings of the tales however the only mood setting it provides for me is to switch channel and watch something else.

Does the opening music last longer than other programs or does it just feel like it goes on forever because it's so dreadful? The high pitched ships bell needs to go all together and a new theme tune should be considered before I can go back to viewing again.shame as the concept of the program is to my liking.

I thought this might be better but they've still got pregnant pause Tim Tate. It just starts to get annoying so I will turn off. Much better when he was not in it when Geoffrey Wansell presented.

There are much better series like 24 Hour in Police Custody which knocks spots of Murder by the Sea.

I don't think I really have much more to say about this programme other than they could have done so much better with some more interesting experts contributors. The police and those investigating the crime itself always come across very well and in this particular series they are so much more interesting and better than the other cast.

A lack of original footage means plenty of repetition and empty conjecture to fill out each overlong episode. Pace is slow and boring, the presenter constantly dwelling on obvious points like how selfish and lacking in remorse the murderer was and how frightened the victim must have been. Constantly imploring the viewer to imagine this, imagine that, as if they need to be told what to do! The whole thing framed in the ridiculous premise that the seaside somehow attracts murderers more than other possible locations.

Trying to watch the 5th series but that annoying music over the whole of the episodes is to much.. I'm turning it off

To begin with I thought this was going to be a great series. However I must agree with the reviews in that the background music and sounds became unbearable. The storylines were interesting but ruined by the repetitive comments throughout. Another annoying thing is the comment in the introduction that the sea has no respect for human life!!! What a ridiculous statement, the sea is the sea and it is us humans that have no respect for the Sea!

The other fact that needs to be clarified is that mental illness does not make a person a murderer. Most murders are committed by people that know exactly what they are doing and are perfectly sane. This should be added to the narrative perhaps look at and quote the statistics on that subject

I have tired of this series unfortunately.
