Ok, we didn't love this one, but we did find a reason to be optimistic. Was it the plot? The scripts? The acting? Shayne Ward's linen wardrobe? No. None of those. But even in the darkest of times, we found one thing to love. Have a listen to find out what it was.

"Can it be? ...it's my own particular one and only four starred pussy. The super pussy of all old pussies..."*

IT'S MISS MARPLE!

And it's Jane Marple in midsomer land with a high body count and bonkers deaths. We LOVED this and quite frankly, we don't care if you didn't. It's even got Matt from Busted in it.

Apols for the cameos by Lex's dog (cat?) and a five year old boy. Summer hols, innit.

* Sir Henry Clithering in "A Murder is Announced", by Agatha Christie. First published by the Collins Crime Club in 1950. If you made that out to be more than it was, that's on you, not me.

Stop me if you've heard this: A detective from the Met Police gets transferred to a complelety different jurisdiction and has to join a team of quirky locals to solve a baffling murder. Nope, it's not Death in Paradise, it's not even McDonald and Dodds! Because we're in Turkey this time, for the Turkish Detective!

No cliche is left unturned in these opening episodes, but that doesn't mean we don't have hope for the future, so hang in there. If nothing else, listen to find out what Lex used to secrete in her bed as a teenager. Is it relevent to the plot? Maybe. Maybe not. You'd better download and find out...

At the time of recording "The Turkish Detective" was available on BBC Iplayer in the UK, and via a VPN in the rest of the world.

This podcast contains description of fictionalised violence, and, of course, is full of SPOILERS.
