Customer Reviews

Over the Blue Murder moon with this series!
Just finished watching this run on ITV - excellent viewing - very easy and enjoyable to watch - no complicated and 'difficult to follow' plots just straight forward who-dun-it with a nice mix of serious/fun characters.
Saying that,however, the final '2 part' episode takes on a far more serious story line involving Shap and also Janine's (the always great Caroline Quentin) family predicament with her son Tom (an ever improving Ceallach Spellman) at odds with her own career aspirations.
Great viewing and a great series.

BLUE MURDER
Keeps getting better and could not believe how old the children now where. Impressive acting
from all the main character and the love story just makes it better.

Blue Murder is great
Series Five is the best series of Blue Murder (so far).

Janine's kids father is living in another country and her teenage son is taking out his father's absence on her by being rude and skipping school.

Janine finally has to decide between her career and her kids after her son gives her a few home truths about her never having any time to spend with him.

When Janine sees she has no choice but to quit her job, Richard tries to talk out of it.

Their is a really great 2 part story that ends the series with some nice shocks and surprises, will Janine quit her job for the sake of her kids?
