Is it worth checking out?

The characters played by Sara Mortensen and Idir Chander see their personal lives and their professional lives intertwined in the TV movie. Indeed, even though they don’t know each other, Clara and Vincent still share a connection: Matilda, who is none other than the pregnant policeman’s sister and the latter’s precious and gentle partner!

Unfortunately, the two women have long been estranged and are still reeling from the sudden death of their mother (played by former TV presenter Eglantine Aimee) years ago.

Moreover, the further the investigation by the police progresses, the more the troubled family history of the sisters gets mixed up with the investigation… and then doubts arise, the basis of this already – very – complicated.

Moreover, the duo of Sarah Mortensen (seen in L’Abime this year) and Camille Clarisse (whom we loved last year in Vortex!) work much better on screen than our police tandem… Unfortunately, the chemistry is not evident between Astrid and Rafael and Idir Chander starrer. damage

In addition, even if Murders in Bayeux offers a fairly original plot that combines history, local know-how (here we discover the famous Bayeux tapestry and the rare profession of lace) and mysterious British characters, boredom is felt due to a certain length of the story.

For an anecdote, we are finally happy to find in the credits a young Lisa Cipriani, who played Camilla (Emma’s troubled sister (Pauline Bression)) in Plus belle la vie, back when the series was still offered on France 3. .

Thanks to the resolution of the investigation, will Clara and Matilda be able to exorcise the demons of this difficult past that haunts them? To find out, discover Murders in the Bayeux tonight on France 3 from 9.10pm.
