jakmgb Although some scenes were clearly In Ireland, possibly Kerry, much was filmed in the LA area I think. The clearness of the daylight was too good for the British Isles. The hotch potch of accents made this compelling viewing for me, there was an old lady (related to the patriarch) with a Glaswegian (Scottish) accent, a few Northern Oirish voices (including one of the leads - Sarah-Jane Potts) and some lovely strong west coast brogues (to be sure there were from de detective fella in particolar). That and the wonderfully woeful stereotyping of de irish, Irish dancing in a US style sports bar, an old rogue telling a dreadfully dull mythical Irish tale and all this being thoroughly lapped up by a youthful clientèle favouring Guinness or Whiskey of course! Brilliant. Could have been worse; I was once in an Irish bar in NYC and an Irish American ordered himself what he felt was an authentic drink: half Guinness/half Kilkenny! I choked. No joke, it all made this more fun to watch. Also look out for the large American Ford van in a chase scene, who shipped that over? And the detective's car, a lovely 80s mercedes with French headlamps. Gorgeous car mind. Quite a stock of right hand drive vehicles in them thar Hollywood Hills. I quite like MSW, but my favourite TV detective will always be Columbo. Slainte!

jjefferies-1 I cringed when I saw this film. Sections of it may have been filmed in Ireland but that's where any Irish connection ends. Fionnuala Flanagan is the only Irish actor of note in the film and she has lived in the USA for the last 34 years. Hardly any other member of the cast or production team is Irish, including those with Irish sounding names. The stage-Irish accents are appalling and you are unlikely to encounter such an accent anywhere in Ireland. Strange as it may seem Irish people don't speak like the leprechauns of 1930s Hollywood films.I thought they gave up making this type of gombeen Irish film forty years ago. It seems I was wrong. Go back to Cabot Cove Angela!

rocknsky With strong performances by all players, this was one of the best episodes of "Murder She Wrote". It was refreshing to watch a "Who done it" that wasn't easily solved in the first 10 minutes of the movie.Fionnula Flanagan's character, Margaret, kept Jessica's eyes rolling with her finger-snapping and explosive temper. The setting was beautiful giving one a sense of Ireland and it's people. Let's have more episodes, please.
