I'm really wondering about the many positive reviews of this mini-series whodunit. The acting is OK, the scenery's beautiful ( at least partly filmed in my old home, Sonoma County, CA), but the story, completely unbelievable. I'm only half way through, but I can already tell there is not going to be a good, satisfying nding to this muddled mess.

Let me start by saying, I love British movies and TV shows. I've rarely seen one that I didn't like. This movie just didn't hold my interest, at all. First, as a costume designer for community theater for ov thirty years, I'm a huge fan of period pieces. The costumes in this movie seemed to be representative of the late 1930's, however, I just couldn't get over the character of Robin's hair. All of the other men had 1930's hair and Robin looked like a 2010 surfer dude. I felt the story was boring and just wasn't moving forward fast enough for me. The actors were bland, except for Douglas and Garsten Don't waste your time on this one.
