Claire Goose returns as Devon-based coroner Jane Kennedy

Claire Goose returns as Devon-based coroner Jane Kennedy, who teams up with local cop – and childhood sweetheart – DS Davey Higgins (ex-Casualty actor Matt Bardock) to investigate baffling and often inexplicable deaths.

Every skydiver's worst nightmare is played out in this first episode when an instructor's parachute fails to open mid-jump and he's sent hurtling towards the ground. His death horrifies his wife and fellow jumpers, but who could have tampered with his 'chute?

With its imaginative cases and sunny coastal backdrop, this 10-part crime drama (showing daily) is a welcome contrast to the umpteen daytime quizzes and property shows.
