Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, the Australian TV series set in the 1920s and starring Essie Davis as the amateur sleuth with the fab frocks, was so popular there's now a spin-off set in the 1960s. Phryne Fisher's niece Peregrine has inherited her aunt's fortune after growing up in a trailer park. And she joins forces with other women who refuse to be held back by their gender to solve crimes. Playing Peregrine Fisher is actor and singer/songwriter Geraldine Hakewill. Before she took on the 60s miniskirts, she was best known for a contemporary Aussie TV drama called Wakefield, set in a psych ward. But Geri tells Lynn Freeman she was a fan of the original Miss Fisher mysteries, and she's also fallen in love with the whole 1960s vibe. The new series of Miss Fisher's Modern Murder Mysteries is screening on Acorn TV.

Coming in last, 18th place, for 2020 is Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears. The Crypt of Tears is a movie adaptation of the Australian television staple, Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, which aired from 2012 through to 2015 and was generally well received, however the stretching of a regular TV episode to the silver screen leaves a lot to be desired.

Daina Reid is an award-winning Australian TV and Film Director. And she’s just lovely! In this interview, she shares how a Tropfest short film led her to leave acting and become a director. She talks about her recent work on SBS’s Sunshine TV drama and what she learnt working with the South-Sudanese community in Melbourne. Later in the interview, Daina explains some of her directorial and technical decisions for filming comedy shows. Less is more! It was also interesting to hear her thoughts on casting and what it’s like working with non-actors compared to established actors like Asher Keddie (Offspring; Paper Giants). I met Daina when I attended her Directing Masterclass a few weeks ago. Learning more about directing is really changing how I write my stories. In this episode, you may hear my fellow classmate Kylie in the background who came to film the interview with me.

Phryne Fisher Murder Mysteries - She’s smoothly sensual, a sharp dresser, and has a wicked uppercut. We travel to the Antipodes to visit with Phryne Fisher, the protagonist of a series of 20 murder mystery books and three seasons of an adaptation to television. We like the cut of her jib and the stab of her knife. If you’d like to prep before listening, we read three of the books: Cocaine Blues, our introduction to the cast, which grows and grows; Murder in Montparnasse, which fleshes out her backstory; and Murder in the Dark, which takes place on a rambly country estate and features a sex cult. We fire off the spoiler horn after our initial background discussion. Host Glenn Fleishman with Jean MacDonald, Katie Lane, Shannon Sudderth and Suzi Steffen.
