The Madame Blanc Mysteries - Season 3, Episode 3 - January 18, 2024 - "Jackal"


The episode starts out with a woman getting shot as she stands at a bus stop in the middle of the small town's shopping district, in broad daylight. Everyone is out and about enjoying their day, and witnesses the event but no one sees who did it. Jeremy and Judith, who are still trying to run their pub, get an idea about how to make money off all the people the murder will be bringing into town.


They'll give away free crepes, thus drawing people into the pub and hopefully spending money on other food and drink.


Great scene with Jeremy as crepe chef! Longtime Robin fans will notice a familiar scene from "Bless this House"!!
I love it when they do stuff like that! Anyway, with the amount of ingredients they needed to buy and the amount that falls on the floor and is wasted, they wind up not being all that profitable.
Jeremy and Judith are exhausted and decide they really need to find someone to help.
Coincidentally, Steve's uncle happens to be in town and mentions that he's owned and managed a few pubs in his day and offers to help out...
...only to find himself with a job offer and a place to live!
So, just like that, we get a new regular castmember! In the meantime, of course, Jean White is solving the murder case, coming to wrong conclusions, bringing in a lot of trivia about antiques, etc. But yes, figured out in the end with the help of the dead girl's father who has come from out of town. Nothing left for me to say except enjoy some more of these fun then and now scenes!
