Death among the Olives: episode four

About this episode

Three middle-aged gay men navigate life and a murder mystery in rural Andalucia.

Three middle-aged, gay men, each with their reasons for starting over, share a house in a small, rural town in Andalucia. Learning to adjust and adapt to new housemates is a hard trick for these old dogs to learn, and things do not go smoothly. But a sensational murder in their adopted town soon brings the men together. The death of a migrant worker in the olive fields has the whole town on tenterhooks, and our three heroes become consumed with the desire to solve the mystery. “Death Among the Olives,” is a comic play set in a picturesque region of Southern Spain, renowned for its undulating olive groves and medieval castles. It’s like "The Golden Girls" meets "Murder, She Wrote", but with men; and set in Spain CAST John Kennard as Colin Pavel Douglas as Jack Ivan Wilkinson as Victor Judit Cebollada Val as Nazaret/Remedios Luis Alberto Martin as Juan Antonio, the shop keeper, waiter Lorenzo Simpson as Babacar/Moussa-Oumar Olajide Popoola as Abdou and Buba Sow Naomi Rohatyn as Doña Lourdes Stephanie Terrero as the mother superior MUSIC Naranjas en diciembre by Vendla Rumblas de Rambla by Los Principes del Flamenco A Sombre View - Andres Cantu Spanish Heat by Jonathan Bondesson…
