Some links to what people are saying:
“Robert Thorogood adapts his own novels alongside Lucia Haynes (Vera) and Julia Gilbert (Midsomer Murders), each of whom will write a two-episode murder mystery. Thorogood’s episodes will be an adaptation of his second novel, Death Comes to Marlow while Haynes and Gilbert are set to pen brand new stories.” (The Marlow Murder Club Renewed for Season 2 by Masterpiece, UKTV)
“And I was raised mostly by my mum, and my great aunt Jean, and my great aunt Jess, and my grandmother, Betty, all of whom were these really strong, eccentric, intelligent women who smoked and drank. They were just these really inspirational women who were married to these quite boring men, who all felt they had the power.” (The Marlow Murder Club creator first pitched it as a TV series before the book)
