Cozy mysteries give you the benefits of more uncomfortable mysteries - the suspense, the puzzles - without the gore, the sensationalism, the foregrounded perversity. The heroes are typically amateur or private detectives, possibly quirky, often women, sometimes a couple they aren’t likely to suffer the afflictions common to the hard-boiled shamus - depression, rage, alcoholism, untreated trauma. We tend to avoid anything described as “dark” or “gritty” in favor of what are often called “cozy mysteries.” Among the shows we’re most likely to watch are mysteries, but not just anything with a murder. The first is a solitary occupation, the second mostly shared with the person I live with, which makes it a matter of shared taste and promoting domestic harmony. Watching television is my job, but it is also sometimes a recreation. "International Emmys: 'Sex Education,' Dougray Scott and Lou de Laage Among Winners".

Scott was nominated at the International Emmy Awards for his performance. Carol Midgely in The Times gave the series four stars saying “ I thought it was terrific, give or take the odd daft scene” and “few writers could write about such horror and still make it funny”. Lucy Mangan in The Guardian was less effusive awarding the series three stars, but saying that Welsh “pushed the limits of what we normally see from the troubled detective at the centre of such shows”. Reception Critical response Īnita Singh in The Daily Telegraph gave the series four stars describing the performance of Scott as “lifting” the police procedure “out of the ordinary” by delivering “every line with a burning intensity” that still “manages at the same time to convey the character’s emotional fragility, and the toll that his job is taking”. The second series will be shown in the UK on ITVX with the first series becoming available via ITVX in 2023. The first series premiered on BritBox on 18 November 2021. Scott was quoted as saying "Season 2 takes us even deeper into Lennox's past, and helps us understand his persona even more.I couldn't be happier.” Among those returning for series two are Ken Stott, Joanna Vanderham, John Simm and Derek Riddell. Filming continued in Glasgow into November 2022. Production crews were reported in Glasgow’s West End, with filming occurring on Horselethill Road and Rosslyn Terrace. Production is by Buccaneer and Off Grid Film and TV. Directors for the second series include Trygve Allister Diesen and Anthony Neilson.
