Rating: 5 stars
Summary: tongue-in-cheek mystery
Review: this is, indeed, a stylish video. of course, diana rigg can't give a bad performance, but, in addition, the era is well captured, the dialogue is enjoyable (especially mrs. bradley's asides), the plot sufficiently tricky to keep one's interest, and the relationships believable.

all in all, very entertaining.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A must for detective fans
Review: This show is one of the most original yet familiar shows that I have seen in the last five years. Diana Rigg is glorious as Mrs. Bradley, and Neil Dudgeon is brilliant as her side kick and possible paramour, George Moody. The BBC-America recently showed four more episodes, and they lived up to this original pilot. Highly recommended!

Summary: Enjoyable!
Review: Very entertaining if you like a good mystery. Diane Riggs smartly plays a Mrs. Adela Bradley who travels with her dependable chauffeur George to Chayning Court to attend an engagement party for her god-daughter, Eleanor. Only this party brings murder instead of merry. Eleanor's fiance is the unfortunate corpse and we have a sorted cast of characters who are all suspects. Mrs. Bradley, with the help of George, work to solve the puzzle. There are a couple very interesting revelations. And learning the identity of the killer in the end may prove surprising. But the mystery is not exactly over when one thinks it is. The setting is in the 1920's, and the costumes and music of the era present nicely to the viewer's escape. Also, the show was shot on film and not on video as is sometimes done in these series. Therefore the cinematagraphy in this mystery is rich and has depth. The location is pretty, full of countryside greens. A pleasure to watch.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Entertaining
Review: While this was a good movie, I was able to predict the killer almost immediately. Nevertheless the costumes were beautiful and the storyline was quite entertaining.
