The Madame Blanc Mysteries returns with first look at season 3
Sally Lindsay's crime drama is back on Channel 5, and we have an exclusive first-look clip from episode 1.
Following on from its Christmas special last month, The Madame Blanc Mysteries is returning to Channel 5, and RadioTimes.com has an exclusive first-look clip from episode 1.
In the video, Alex Gaumond's Inspecteur Caron tells Sally Lindsay's Jean about a deep-sea diver, Gary, who has been found dead with a Charles 2nd 22-carat gold guinea from 1677 in his bag. She tells him it would be worth at least 2,500 euros.
Introduced to the diver's colleagues, Jean asks them whether they were diving for treasure - on the contrary, they were governmental scientists testing the ocean bed, and the discovery of the coin was, apparently, completely accidental.
Whatever the case, it seems there's something fishy going on here...
