A dead body has been found in the cemetery, but there's a weird note attached to it. Is it a crossword puzzle clue? If so, what does it mean? And can Cora, who doesn't actually write the crossword puzzle column that bears her name, figure it out? I enjoyed this series debut despite Cora's drinking, a vice she gives up a few books down the road. The word play more than made up for it to me.

Quite possibly my favourite film of all time
I love this film. While it is slightly dated, and bears next to no resemblance to the Richard Bachman book on which it was based, it is such a fun, action-packed and surprisingly thought-provoking film. The use of convicts in light entertainment is a subject that has been explored elsewhere in the media (Black Mirror for one) but for me this nails my vision of what we'll be watching in future - it isn't that far from Love Island, just with less willing contestants and slightly more fighting.
