COMPETITION: Whitstable Pearl: Series 2 DVD


Following its successful launch on Acorn TV, a third series in the pipeline and the first season about to air on UKTV Drama, it’s the perfect time to discover this gem of a series. Whitstable Pearl Series 2 and Series 1 and 2 Box set arrive on DVD and digital 25 March 2024 from Acorn Media International.

And to celebrate we have a great competition and 3 copies on DVD to give away.

Synopsis
Set in the picturesque 16th century English seaside resort of Whitstable, one of Kent’s most stunning coastal towns famous for its native oysters, the enthralling mystery series, based on acclaimed author Julie Wassmer’s (EastEnders) popular novels The Whitstable Pearl Mystery and Disappearance at Oare is brought to life by iconic Norwegian filmmaker Øystein Karlsen (Exit, Dag).
 
Series two sees the big-hearted Pearl Nolan (Godliman) continue to juggle her impeccable investigative skills while running her restaurant with mum Dolly (Barber), although now her work as a full-time investigator takes centre stage.
 
Six months after the breakdown of her fleeting romance with DCI Mike McGuire (Charles), Pearl is now happily dating supply teacher Tom (Webb) – who’s the definition of a “nice guy”. But her mother has other ideas and is determined to get her and Mike back together – even though they didn’t end on the best of terms.

As Pearl develops her crime-busting career, she and Mike are either pitted against each other, racing to solve a case, or forced to work together to get results. No longer partners in love but still very much partners in crime-solving, a series of fresh challenges await our dynamic – if not slightly dysfunctional – duo. Cases include a missing child, a sinister case of night terrors, a perilous twist in the sale of a pub, a slain bride, a 1970s film legend in peril – played by the inimitable screen legend Stephanie Beacham (Coronation Street, Dynasty) in a scene-stealing turn – and many more.
 
We first meet Pearl, in series 1, as a popular restaurateur whose real passion lies in detective work after her police career was suddenly cut short many years before. When she discovers the body of a close family friend, she’s convinced it was foul play and following her instincts, she sets up her own detective agency and embarks on her own murder investigation.
 
With a loveable lead and stellar supporting cast, don't miss the tide of suspense, heartfelt humour, and British coastal charm of Whitstable Pearl Series 2.

Sheriff Chuck Wright Apologizes for Mistaken Identity in Drug Roundup in Spartanburg County, South Carolina

In a public acknowledgment of a regrettable error, Sheriff Chuck Wright held a press conference on Tuesday 13th February 2024 to address a misidentification made by his agency during a recent drug roundup. The announcement came after deputies erroneously charged Olin Christopher Rhodes II with possession with intent to distribute fentanyl.

"I owe a man a sincere apology because we made a mistake," Sheriff Wright stated during the conference, expressing remorse for the wrongful accusation.

The incident unfolded on January 7, when deputies released the names of over two dozen individuals arrested in a narcotics bust. Among those named was Olin Christopher Rhodes II, falsely implicated in the drug-related charges. Despite his innocence, Rhodes voluntarily turned himself in, facing unjust consequences, including termination from his position with the City of Mauldin.

"This is a man that did nothing wrong," Sheriff Wright emphasized, holding up a photo of Rhodes to highlight the grave error.

However, Sheriff Wright conveyed that the City of Mauldin officials displayed understanding upon learning of the mistaken identity and promptly reinstated Rhodes to his job. Moreover, he pledged to assist Rhodes in reclaiming any financial losses incurred during his wrongful absence from work, demonstrating a commitment to rectifying the unjust repercussions of the error.

Jon Stewart on "Dying" TV vs. Social Media - After The Cut - The Daily Show

Jon Stewart
 

People have stated that "TV is dying" for years, but is it actually or are audiences just changing their viewing habits? Jon Stewart has a friendly debate with an audience member in the latest After The Cut.

Jon Stewart, once hailed as a comedic trailblazer and political satirist, has since fallen from grace in the eyes of many critics. Despite his acclaimed tenure as the host of "The Daily Show," and recent return, Stewart's post-retirement ventures have been met with lukewarm reception. His sporadic forays into entertainment, including film projects and hosting gigs, have failed to capture the same zeitgeist as his earlier work. Moreover, Stewart's attempts to maintain relevance through sporadic public appearances and commentary have been perceived by some as desperate grabs for attention, further tarnishing his once-shining legacy.
