35 Days (35 Diwrnod) on Britbox

From Wales in Welsh with subtitles.



A couple of things here...

Britbox is a product from the BBC and ITV. If you like British TV shows, this is a good way to access a LOT of material.

There are 3 seasons of 35 Days. Most dramas start with the murder and then have detectives investigate to try and figure out who has done the murder. In 35 Days, they start with the murder and then jump back 35 days and go through the events that led up to the murder. They present the viewers with bits and pieces, and you are supposed to sort out who did the murder before they reveal it as the very end of the season.

The picture above is from season one. Jan is the murder victim. You start the show seeing her dead on her carpet. Back up 35 days, and she is a flight attendant moving into a neighborhood. She has a secret, but it isn't revealed at the beginning. One woman thinks Jan is blackmailing her husband. Her son is a lunatic that is prone to do anything. The local drug dealer thinks she is an undercover cop. The neighborhood lech isn't getting the attention from her that he thinks he deserves. The businessman has the hots for her but thinks he may know her from a previous life. Etc.

There are a lot of people that have motives to kill her, and all you have to do is sort out which one did it before the big reveal.
