Thank you - I love to have a good mystery waiting on my bedside table,
and a lace theme will be the cherry on the cake! It will be a long time
before the series appears on British television, I fear, but I will look
out for it.

I haven't seen any mention of this series on Arachne, though maybe
Aussie Gumnuts have.
One of the Estonian commercial TV stations has been showing this
series, which is based
on the books written by Kerry Greenwood. There are 17 books altogether
plus a short story
collection, which I enjoyed listening to last year. Set in 1928-29 and
very well researched.
Tatting is mentioned in 2 of the books & surprisingly bobbin lace in
only one.
But I was pleased to see Ashleigh Cumming's character Dot Williams
wearing a collar edged
in tatted lace in the 4th Episode, as well as a simple Torchon lace
collar in Episode 5 -"Almonds
and Raisins" & Episode 6 -"Ruddy Gore".
I highly recommend the books.
