Laura Thyme is dumped by her husband, and travels to see a friend, she moves into a hotel, and gets acquainted with fellow gardener Rosemary Boxer, the pair soon discover shared interests in gardening, and murder.
What a fine start to the series, I always thought that Father Brown was one of the pioneering shows when it came to lighter murder mysteries, however Rosemary and Thyme got there first.
It's an intriguing and fairly amusing start, the story is a good one, with just the right amount of suspense, intrigue and humour.
The music is a little twee, and if is now twenty years old, but it has aged fairly well. Gorgeous filming locations, they really chose some terrific places to film.
The combination of Pam Ferris and Felicity Kendall is a joyous one, they worked so well together. It's very nicely acted all round.
The makeup used on David Mallinson is absolutely superb, it's terrific, he looks so uncomfortable, in so much discomfort.
It's a great start.
9/10.
