Belvedere
Season 3, Episode 1

A young woman dies in a busy park in broad daylight, so Dodds are called in to untangle the mysterious circumstances of her death. Who is she? How did she die surrounded by witnesses? And how is it possible that she appears to be smiling? Evidence leads to Professor George Gillan, a linguistic anthropologist who lives in a rambling mansion with his eccentric mother, whose 100th birthday is days away. Dodds is sure that the house has something to do with the murder, but in uncovering its history, Dodds also unearths secrets in his own past. Return of the crime drama, starring Jason Watkins and Tala Gouveia, with guest appearances by Alan Davies, Catherine Tyldesley and Sian Phillips
