Fans have shared their opinions on the BBC's new murder mystery Death Valley.
The series, which is airing new episodes on Sunday nights, stars Timothy Spall as a retired actor who is seen as a local legend in a small Welsh village.
One of those super fans is a young detective who decides to rope him in when people start dropping dead in very implausible ways on a weekly basis.
Viewers are pretty enamoured with the new series, commenting how much they are enjoying it on an official BBC Instagram post.
"I'm loving this, so funny. I think it takes a little bit to get into, but then I had to keep rewinding to listen to funny bits again. I've nearly finished episode 2 and I love it," wrote one fan.

We at Digital Spy also enjoyed the first two episodes, writing in our review: "It's [the] tone, peppered throughout the comedic murder mystery, that is part of what sets Death Valley apart from its peers. Unlike the Paradise shows, part of the gag in Death Valley comes from the fact that the show is sometimes a plot device for the joke itself.
"Instead of the comedy just being narratively driven, elements of the show are comedic in themselves – think dual murders, with one fictional and on screen, and the other happening in the village."
Death Valley airs on weekly on Sundays on BBC One. The whole boxset is also available to watch now on BBC iPlayer.
