Great (first 5) series about murder cases from late 19th century onwards that occurred in British seaside resorts and coastal towns. Through recreated flashbacks & interviews with various respected crime experts, each episode is presented by best-selling true-crime author & dandy, Geoffrey Wansell. He gives a knowledgeable, intelligent, incisive & well-researched narration as he guides us through each case. Alas, the last 3 series have been awful: presented by dull Nell Darby who frequently misses details when drawing her obvious conclusions delivered in uninspiring & dreary fashion. A great pity.
