Anyone seen this? Two episodes so far.
It has a similar feel as that one with the two detectives in Malta. Silly plots, sunny weather and great scenery. It's set on a cruise ship. And it's definitely convinced me not to go on one. Not because of the murders but cos those things are my idea of hell.

Yes I’ve been watching it, former detective becomes a cruise singer (he does a little song at the end). There’s a murder and then he teams up with the woman who is second in command (I think) and they go off solving the crime. Gorgeous scenery, not exactly makes me want to have cruise (agree with you there Miranda), plots a bit silly but a bit of light fluff on a Friday night

The tone of this reminds me very much of The Madame Blanc Mysteries which were pretty dire in some ways but curiously compelling I don’t think this is as good but it is very watchable. I read that it was filmed during an actual cruise with some passengers walking around as extras. And I was really surprised by the size of the theatre he was crooning in at the end. It was ENORMOUS and packed. For an ex copper Jack doesn’t have much respect for the integrity of the crime scene does he?😂😂 And Catherine Thingy seems to be phoning in her performance. We need more Claire Sweeney who reminds me of a blonde Jane McDonald.

I’ve seen the first two. Very little in terms of plot, but, like the rest of you have said, gorgeous scenery. Can’t help feeling that the writers worked this backwards in that they wanted a story to feature Shayne Ward and then wove in a reason for him to sing. It passes the time though!
