Wasn't she in Fawlty Towers? Nah, she was the other one - Sybil (the miserable one).Someone mentioned the poly styrene documentary on here
Christ it’s quite good but bloody miserable
There are only three episodes. That's it. Watched it ...impossible to work out if the main suspect is guilty or an arty type loving the limelight or a lunatic. Of course, what country does he come from? Couldn't be a native now. The whole place is full of life's arty oddities. Then there is the chief inspector who denies it but his whole persona really does suggest that he believes that he is a Colombo-style investigator; the star-witness is incredulous....what is she hiding...a secret affair, is her secret beau the real murderer?, the aunt of the victim is another arty type (ghosts & spirits up at the three castles), just like the poor victim. I feel very sorry for the parents who have not gotten over this at all, and the son who has taken a very dignified approach. From what I can tell the weakness for the Garda is that their evidence is provided to the "DPP" who seems to be an overarching single individual whose subjective interpretation of the evidence provided is the final word. The difference in the judicial systems of France & Ireland leaves both looking at complete odds with the other. Still, a gate with blood stains "disappearing" is farcical. But back to the victim, what the hell was she doing in such a remote location while her young child is left behind in France coming up to Christmas?I'm currently watching Sophie: A Murder in West Cork on Netflix.
Three episodes in and so far it's a terrible advert for the Garda

Weird but apparently there is another account of this murder also just out right now on Sky Crime, called Murder at the Cottage
Funny that, as I quite disliked The Watch, partly because it bore no resemblance to Pratchett's Watch and partly because it was totally ****. I'd be amazed if it was renewed for a second season.Currently watching Loki (Disney+) and The Watch (iPlayer) both recommended.
The Watch bears little resemblence to the Discworld books. And that is a good thing. I now have a different take on The Night Watch to enjoy rather than an inferior rendition of the source material.
I watched the first episode and it didn't hook me, so I won't be watching the rest.There are only three episodes. That's it.

Were they full of radon...that box is glowing!!!Totally off topic, but does anyone remember "Three Castles" cigarettes? Started me off on my miserable smoking habit when I used to visit my paternal grandfather in Whitley Bay in the summer. Grandad was a pipe smoker, so me smelling of his pipe smoke disguised my hidden habit. No-one up in Northumberland questioned youngsters buying cigs at the local tobacconist - I was only 11!!!
