AGATHA RAISIN AND THE FAIRIES OF FRYFAM (Exclusive WORLD Premiere, Acorn TV's first sole commission)

"My favorite show of the summer... comic mystery with delightful Ashley Jensen" -The New York Times

Emmy(R)-nominated actress Ashley Jensen (Available for INTERVIEWS, Catastrophe, Extras, Ugly Betty) returns in the adaptations of MC Beaton's best-selling novels. The series follows a London PR whizz turned amateur sleuth, who becomes entangled in mischief, mayhem, and murder when she opts for early retirement in the country. In The Fairies of Fryfam (Movie #2 of 3 in Series 2), in a desperate attempt to avoid her ex-lover, James Lacey (Jamie Glover, Waterloo Road), whose return to Carsely is imminent, Agatha escapes to the remote and seemingly idyllic village of Fryfam, under the guise of writing "her big novel." But it isn't long before Agatha's nose for trouble ensnares her in a maelstrom of jealousy and dangerous liaisons, when all is not as it seems in this eerie forgotten village, and when it leads to murder, there's only one person who can solve it.
