Resort To Murder (BBC Thriller, Ben Chaplin)
In five part BBC thriller Resort To Murder post graduate student Joshua Penny (Ben Chaplin) returns to Brighton desperate to prove that his dad was innocent of the murder of his mother. To do so he needs to find the real killer – the only clue he has is the knowledge of a distinctive tattoo spotted on the arm of the real killer.
Resort To Murder, with its title also taking into account its seaside resort town setting, had something of a chequered history as it made its way to the screen. It was actually made in 1993 and filmed as an eight parter before the powers that be decided that it was needlessly convoluted and re-edited it down to five episodes.
