Review by rmeyerglass

Let's be honest, I'm sure Sally Lindsay is a lovely person in real life, but as an actress she merely plays herself in everything she does. She's totally unconvincing as an art/antiques expert - a branch of Greggs or a hairdressing salon would be more fitting. The poor woman seems to sleepwalk her way through the show, showing minimal awareness in what is going on around her. And why do most of the English community of a small French town seem to come from the Stockport/South Manchester area? I know that her fellow actors are her friends but I find this chumminess is casting irritating. Also, how come an unqualfied non-French speaking foreigner is allowed to actively participate in investigations by the French police? The plots are embarrasingly transparent - it's so obvious who the killer is before the fist ad break. This show is so lightweight that you aren't aware of having watched anything much when the end credits roll.
