Based on a novel by Louise Candlish. 4 x 45 for ITV. Tuppence Middleton is understandably a bit put out when she gets home and finds her lovely house has been sold from under her by separated husband Martin Compston, though it turns out he's being blackmailed by Rupert Penry-Jones (who I have to say we thought would be dodgy the moment we saw him) and Buket Komur.
The ending is awful. Before committing suicide, having returned the money, Compston drops Tuppence in it for the murder of RPJ. If that's the novel ending, Mr Simon Ashdown, I would have changed it. In fact the more I think about the plot, the more ridiculous it was. Was RPJ road raging for a bit of fun? Why did the solicitor still transfer the money when he'd had evidence that the real wife had visited? Why didn't people involve the police at all the moments when you or I would have?
With Veruche Obia, Bronach Waugh.
The house is in Dulwich, South London, overlooking Peckham Rye, and the interior was created in detail in the studio.
