The two-part series stars Samantha Bond (Outnumbered<\/a>), Jo Martin (Doctor Who<\/a>) and Cara Horgan (Black Cake<\/a>) as three women who come together to solve a murder in their hometown, Marlow, while Natalie Dew (Bodies<\/a>) plays detective DS Tanika Malik, who is in charge of the police investigation.<\/p>\n RadioTimes.com<\/a> went on the set of the show in Marlow, and, along with other press, spoke with the stars about what viewers can expect.<\/p>\n Horgan noted the juxtaposition of the show\u2019s tone with its setting, saying: \u201cIn terms of tone and look, because Marlow<\/span> itself is so beautiful and picturesque, but the narrative of our show is really dark, I think it works really well as a sort of juxtaposition, because the things that are happening in the script are really gruesome, and we\u2019re in an absolutely picturesque middle England.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd it\u2019s a really nice contrast to have these things going on at once. So we very much tried to make it look beautiful, but real, natural, where we can.\u201d<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Dew added: \u201cIt\u2019s interesting, because you could put it in the same bracket as murder<\/span>s that we know, like Midsomer or Lewis or all of that. But actually, there\u2019s a slightly different undertone. I don\u2019t want to say more modern, but I think it has got roots that feel a lot more present.<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s not so sleepy, picture-perfect, there is a bit more of a sort of edge, I think, that makes it sit slightly different. So it sort of feels like it\u2019s between a thriller that we would know, and that, because some of it is quite dark, it\u2019s not all winks and nods, there is something that feels rooted in a bit more darkness.\u201d<\/p> Martin said that a reference to a specific 1990 film was what helped to sell her on the series and its tone, revealing: \u201cIt\u2019s very playful with this kind of dark undercurrent. Underneath there\u2019s all this kind of danger and mystery.<\/p>\n \u201cI remember one of the first emails I got about it was talking about [how] even though it\u2019s this beautiful, lovely town, it\u2019s like Edward Scissorhands. That really got me.\u201d<\/p>\n The Marlow Murder Club airs on 6th and 7th March at 8pm on Drama.
