[TV] Astrid: Murder In Paris

[Boys 9d]

I watched the first story of the latest series of Walter Presents on Channel 4 More and thought Sara Mortensen's portrayal of an autistic person was brilliant. A performance to match Sofis Helin in "The Bridge".

 

[Is it PotG?]

Channel 4 says filming has wrapped on Patience, the new six-part police crime drama set in York starring Laura Fraser and Ella Maisy Purvis and based on fan favourite French series Astrid: Murder In Paris.

Patience Evans (Ella Maisy Purvis) works in the criminal records department of Yorkshire Police, cataloguing and filing the evidence produced during major cases. A young autistic woman, she craves routine and order, relishing the solitude and structure her job provides but she yearns for more. A brilliant, self-taught criminologist, Patience has an instinctive eye for crime scenes and a passion for problem-solving.

Detective Bea Metcalf (Laura Fraser) is the first person to spot and utilize her talent, which opens a door into a whole new world for Patience. Patience attends a regular support group for autistic adults where they discuss the barriers in operating in a neuro-typical world and how best to navigate it. All neuro-divergent characters within the series will be played by neuro-diverse actors, including the title role of Patience.

I watched one episode and thought it was ham, twee and shite

This is a French language detective programme isn’t it? If not apologies

From the reviews I have just read I am very out of step with most though.

I have recently found this. It's like a cross between Midsommer Murders and Professor T. I like it, it's not challenging to watch and quite sweet

I thought this was going to be about the Chelsea flange bucket again.

Both of which I also find shite
