Jacob and Jessica are back to guess the murderer before the credits roll — this time on the new BritBox cozy crime drama “A Taste for Murder,” set on the stunning island of Capri. Between mispronounced Italian, a suspicious water pump, and debates about apps worth $20 million, will they somehow find the killer?
In This Episode:

Show Intro: A Taste for Murder – A British detective retreats to Capri after his wife's death and ends up, naturally, investigating murders with his teenager in tow. Jacob cannot stress enough how hard it is to feel sorry for someone whose tragedy-coping mechanism is Capri.
The Cast Breakdown – Jessica runs through the credits, including a former two-time world Thai boxing champion turned actor, a young actress who played mini Harry Styles in a music video, and the beloved Mrs. Hughes from Downton Abbey (sorry, IMDB — everyone knows that's her biggest role)
"Suck it, AI — get your head in the game." — Jessica, on IMDB's algorithm
The Episode Recap: "Torta Della Nonna" – A British tourist in a fuchsia dress turns up dead on the rocks below Tiberius Leap. The clues: no shoes, a shredded prenup, a duplicitous boyfriend, a beauty therapist, and a cousin nobody knew existed.
The Guesses – Jessica thinks: grifter, jealous boyfriend, push. Jacob thinks: influencer, depressed girlfriend, made to look like a mental health episode. Jacob wins. Jessica graciously concedes.
"She said she'd give it to me. That means I win." — Jacob
Funny Moments:
Jacob's take on the dad dragging his teenage daughter off a date to go chase a murderer together: "What teenage daughter doesn't want to participate in police work?"
The duo debating whether the Brit detective has earned the right to "retreat to Capri" after a tragedy, leading to: "My definition of tragedy changes drastically when Capri is an option."
Jessica storming into the kitchen at 4 AM thinking Jacob was a burglar — he was feeding the cat. A plate broke. Chaos ensued.
The coroner who doesn't want to share information with the police — a first in TV history according to Jacob and Jessica.
The mysterious restaurant water pump that Joe keeps splashing his face with, now appearing in multiple episodes. Theories welcome.
The Naples police station overrun with plants, many of which were not thriving.
Jacob learning what "EVOO" means approximately 20 years after everyone else.
The pronunciation gauntlet: Italian cast names, episode titles in Italian, and the word "Neapolitan."


Fun History Fact – Tiberius Leap: Emperor Tiberius used that exact cliff to execute servants he didn't like. The Virgin Mary now watches over it. It's fine.
Christie's Rating – Jessica gives it 3; Jacob argues for at least 5 (cahoot situation, multiple alibis, prenup shredded the wrong way). They meet somewhere in the middle.
