Fascinating serial. Not The Magpie Murders, it's Magpie Murders.

Just binge watched the last four, I think it was, episodes.

I enjoyed it. Can't believe Lesley Manville is 67!

We watched it all over the last couple of nights - thoroughly enjoyed it.

Watched the first three and found them to be extremely well produced with a very clever storyline. We'll watch the rest on Saturday.

Well impressed.

The BBC. All episodes upon the iPlayer already.

I binged all the episodes last weekend as I was on-call for work and it was raining.

I liked the story-within-a-story structure with the same actors in both timelines.

The ending was a bit poor though.

There is a sequel book which I assume will also be turned into a tv show.

Fantastic - one to add to my binge-watch list.

Different, story within a story, different but worthwhile paying attention.

I don't normally watch this sort of thing but noticed this thread so thought I'd give it a go.

Binge-watched the lot and found it excellent - can't go wrong with Lesley Manville and Daniel Mays but the rest of the cast were good too.

If there's a sequel, I can't wait to see it.
