2.15pm BBC1 a series about detectives set on the island.
Anyone else watching ? It's not bad for day time TV, there's a little humour thrown in now and then.

I haven’t watched it properly nina it’s been on in the background while I’ve been gazing at internet stuff. I’ll try and watch it today. I often think afternoon tv is better that later.

We’ve recorded it and are really enjoying it. The scenery is fabulous and the story lines are pretty good. Nice to see a bit of humour too. They are making a second series so I expect it might be moved into an evening slot.

Ooh another one to record. Lovely!

I like it too, I record it to watch on a boring evening, DGS also likes it, he loves a detective story. Not too much blood and a bit of humour too.

Stumbled upon this on a day off. Now watched all of the episodes as we downloaded it gets better with each episode! I really like it!

I have watched it a couple of times when at home and love to try and see some of the places on the Island that I know.

Yes we record it and then watch it in the evening. It is nice easy viewing before bed! It is good to have something as a back up when it is a poor night on tv.

The first week made me want to visit Mallorca. Lovely country and sea views, empty roads. This week, based in the city with the clubs not so much! (Haven’t seen today's.)

I’ve just started watching it on I-Player. It looks gentle, rather like Vera or similar, not all violence etc.

Oh, thank you for the recommendation. I’d like to go there now!
