Hello, Elle!
It says, Series 3, Episode 1 of 10.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000bq1r
But we shall see!
I have set Sky to find/record future episodes.
Still windy.
I believe there were lorries blown over near Edinburgh.
They were told to stop because of the wind, but didn't, and got blown over.
Just ordered Diane Janes book about the Croydon Poisonings.
An ex-library book, so should be fine!

Good morning, Rusty!
A dull, but so far dry, day here. Mild.
I hope the severity of your winds has lessened, and the bridge has been re-opened?
Yes, I looked at your link and it does give the impression that this is a new series.......perhaps my TV guide was in error when it stated "Rpt"?
I shall be interested to hear about your book on the Croydon Poisoners.....especially as I know the road!
I am expecting a package today...but with no time slot unfortunately, so I do not know when it will arrive!

Good morning, Elle!
Lovely morning here, but chilly!
Yes, no winds today, so I think the bridge will be open to all traffic and pedestrians.
I am fairly sure the series is a repeat, Elle.
I looked for next week's episode and it is being shown at 3.25 in the morning!
Can't imagine a new series starting at that ungodly hour!
And...I know a wee bit about next week's case.
It's about a Yorkshire farmer who was murdered in the 1930's.
I've read a little bit about it, before.
I am looking forward to the Croydon book.
The research that Diane Janes did for "The Poisoned Partridge" was very deep indeed.
And I believe she comes to a different conclusion than previous authors on the Croydon case, did.

I am sure the MMand MF are repeats. They are shown as such in my TV guide. Original dates of broadcast are here: I have seen a few.

My link does not appear to work. Will just try once more;

Hi, Rusty!
Still dull and dreary here!
Yes, I think you are right in concluding that "Murder, Mystery, and My Family" is a repeat series......
As you say, it is most unlikely that a "new" episode would be shown in the small hours!
I have actually got around to watching ONE episode of the five "Casualty" programmes that I have recorded!
But I am constantly chasing my tail......
I cannot watch a more recent episode, until I have caught up with the forerunners, as the storyline continues ......
It would not make sense to watch out of sequence.
I have just (daringly) placed a second online order with Sainsbury's....to arrive tomorrow!

Good afternoon, Elle!
It's like a beautiful Spring day here!
Just home, I was along a bit of the Nature Trail for a walk.
Not a soul about.
Good luck with Sainsbury order!
I'm sure it will be fine.
Have you a delivery slot?
I watched "Murder..." this morning.
I won't say anything, other than I am in agreement with what happened.


Hello, Cerasus,
Yes, I am convinced the series is being repeated.
I have only seen several episodes, so I am recording all the "wee small hours" series!

Hi, Rusty!
Well, it's raining here!
A very miserable day.
Yes, I have a delivery slot...I can choose when is most convenient for me, providing, of course , that that particular time slot is available.
My delivery is coming between 1 and 2pm tomorrow.
Now...I am feeling very cross.
You know I ordered some "used" books through Amazon.......
One arrived this morning from World of Books....supposed to be in "Very good " condition.
It was absolutely filthy, Rusty!
Disgusting! I was horrified!
I dropped it back into the packaging, and went to wash my hands!!
I phoned Amazon to see what I should do, and they very kindly offered to contact W. o. B on my behalf.
I am now awaiting further developments.
This is the first time I have encountered such a problem.......
I shall try to watch "Murder" tonight...or possibly tomorrow!

Hello, Elle!
That is not like the World of Books that I know!
I have always found them to be first-class to deal with.
Could you not contact World of Books yourself?
Though, I'm sure Amazon will be on the ball.
I have had eBay do similar for me, and everything turned out satisfactorily.
I remember reading that World of Books buy in their books by weight!
Not a certain amount of books, but a certain weight of books.
"Murder..." was good, and the "Wild Atlantic Way" is on tonight.
Anne is in Clare tonight on her journey.
Wonder if she'll go to Lisdoonvarna?
Pretty sure she will!

Good evening, Rusty!
I, too, have always found World of Books to be an excellent provider of used books.
It is usually top of my list.
But this book is a veritable disgrace!
I did debate whether to contact W.o.B directly, but decided to let Amazon handle it.
Ah , now I know of Lisdoonvarna.......you have told me about this .
There is a matchmaking festival there each year!
Yes, I feel sure that Anne will go there.
It should be very interesting to hear more about it.
My daughter phoned earlier on her way home from work......she has recently got a promotion, and is consequently busier than ever!
She really does work hard.
