Madame Blanc Mysteries: Episode 3 - 2021



Episode 3 finds Jeremy and Judith holding an 80s-themed 35th anniversary party! Complete with a poster of their wedding day showing a younger Robin, which I thought was a cute touch:

But, wouldn't you know, there's a murder at the celebration - I won't say who - and thankfully Jean White is soon on the case!

Robin steals every scene he's in, he's adorable in this episode, playing so very oblivious, and the looks his wife gives him are just priceless!

Madame Blanc Mysteries: Episode 2 - 2021



I'm really getting into this show! Fun and simple to follow. This episode finds Jean White helping a woman in town track down information about her birth family, who were separated during WW2, leaving her with just a few antique items to trace. One clue leads her to the grounds of Jeremy (Robin)'s place. His story is revealed more in this episode. His family had been the owners of a large chateau since his grandfather's day, and he and his wife live there now and are quite wealthy. He happily allows Jean and Dom (Steve Edge) to search the grounds, where they find something quite startling (hehe).

Side story is a TV show producer interviewing couples in the village for a new reality show and everyone, including Jeremy and wife, are excited about being the couple chosen. Sue Holderness plays wife Judith and is pretty funny with her over-the-top behavior and Robin does great playing her amiable husband. Some of his expressions are hilarious!
