Summary

This week’s podcast is presented by Stephen and Jacqueline.

We hear from:

· Tracy from California, who isn't sorry to say "I told you so";

· Fiona, who had a plot prediction after Monday's episode - how did it turn out?

· Tracy again, who has thoughts on that Grundy family intervention;

· Witherspoon who also has views on Monday's events;

· Fiona again, with thoughts about what constitutes a "rampage;

· Claire from Clapham, who didn't get the conflagration she was expecting;

· Grellan in London who thinks he knows who attacked George;

· Casey from Canada, with some observations on the Snells;

· and finally David from Carmarthenshire, who wasn't too impressed by Monday;

And we have emails from first time emailer-innerer Miss Marple, loyal listener Purple Pumpkin and from Chris in the middle of Michigan.
