What was everyone thinking to green-light a lavish French murder mystery that takes place in gorgeous Provence with an ALL BRITISH CAST?! It's mind-boggling. At first I thought that they were supposed to be Englishmen in France, but NO, they're all supposed to be French, addressed as Monsieur and Madame. Of course, nobody is speaking French or even attempting to do so; but rather they speak English with every degree of British accent available from refined to Cockney. If you can get past this large bump perhaps you can accept this as a decent series....but I couldn't. You have to swallow too much obvious disbelief just to get beyond the first five minutes. It's positively unreal.
