Murder at sea

Unread post by barney »

Apparently, murder on MSC Virtuosa.
57 year old accused of killing a 60 year old, both from Exeter and on a ‘stag do’

A passenger said that there was more than one altercation and it was a booze cruise full of hen and stag dos.

Life imitating art. That's the ship the tv series "Good Ship Murder" is filmed on. So presumably the Resident Singer and First Officer will solve it before the Police.

Only if they have the cabin steward/waiter/pool attendant/bar tender/drinks waiter to assist!!

But they/he will. He's very versatile.

Not going for another three months - all be over and done with by then, I hope!

I am bereft. It seems Officer Kate is leaving the Good Ship Murder to take up a new job as a Landlady.

And Piers has snuffed it, and the Captain has lost the plot (that's if there ever was a plot). So as Jamil does almost everything on the ship I reckon he will be the new Captain - that is when he is not sweeping the decks, cleaning cabins, working as a bar steward or restaurant waiter or helping Jack and the dopy cruise director will become first officer

In a polically correct non binary twist will Jamil also become Jack's lover?
