We should state right now that Ali loves watching Aidan Gillen and Peter McDonald so much she could watch paintings of them dry, and that the mere lift or lowering of an eyebrow by Sophie Okonedo could induce laughter or a deluge of tears.
But this is the most unbelievable village in England. Everyone suspects everyone else or is very obviously hiding something. We're not saying the opposite is true, but honestly, if you lived in this village, you'd move away double-quick. There are weirdos in the woods, where the police don't seem all that keen to go, judging by the hounds-pack from the village who hunt for the girl. Two women now seriously suspect their husbands and one son suspects his dad, despite no body having been found. And Lesley Manville's dog looks more like hubby Peter Firth than her. What's going on?
Still more 'Midsomer' than 'Murder' alas, which begs the question of whether it needs five hours at funereal pace rather than three livelier episodes.
