Murder on the Blackpool Express (2017 Simon Delaney)

An average script by Jason Cook, slightly recreates Car Share in its teaming of that show's Sian Gibson with Jonny Vegas. Crime writer Griff Rhys Jones (his awful book titles aren't awful enough) visits places which inspired murders but there's a real murderer among them. Nigel Havers, Kevin Eldon, Mark Heap, Kimberley Nixon, Una Stubbs etc. provide distractions as passengers. Awful music doesn't help.

This is though kind of all my fault for suggesting back in a May review there should be a Murder on the Sheffield Express.
