Shana: I find Midsomer Murders sooo relaxingly cozy.
Susan: Oh, man, I spent SO MANY YEARS staying up past my bedtime to watch Midsomer Murders. Caroline Quentin from Blue Murder costars (and that show’s pretty good as well). Jonathan Creek is an older, more comedic show about a magician who solves difficult crimes. There is sometimes blood but it’s not gory. Vera is one of my faves for excellent competence from the heroine, who is both prickly and kind. Shana: For British mysteries? I love Rosemary and Thyme: it’s about two women who have a midlife job/life change and design gardens together while solving crimes-often with a plant-based hook. Sarah: Any recs, Shana? I wish to join you, please? Or both? My guiding principle during the Weirdness Home Stay is, “Do what you feel like doing, and be gentle with yourself, and others, and especially with yourself again.” It’s $7US per month, or $70 for the year, and, yes, there’s a one-week trial.

Sarah: BritBox is a subscription service full of British tv, as the name might imply. We have watched an embarrassing number of hours during our free trial. It seems to have every BBC and ITV show ever made, and I’m watching all the British cozy mysteries.
Shana: I splurged and got a Britbox subscription.
In a recent discussion of things we’re loving that are getting us through the Strange Quarantine Times (side question: how many ways in email, marketing pitches, and news articles have you seen the current situation described? I might have a complete bingo board’s worth at this point) Shana brought up… BritBox.
