About this Event

Cult hit event Solve-Along-A-M**der-She-Wrote comes to Blackpool with an interactive screening of the classic M**der, She Wrote episode, ‘Paint Me a M**der’.

Jessica Fletcher is invited to the remote island hideaway of an artist friend (played by Cesar Romero), but soon there’s a M**der that only she can solve - and now it’s your turn!

Hosted by super-fan Tim Benzie, Solve-Along-A-M**der-She-Wrote is a unique and hilarious night featuring games, prizes and audience participation. It features:

  • A race to solve to the crime, via the Fameometer and the Suspiciometer
  • A Cabot Cove quiz
  • A singalong to the theme tune with new lyrics
  • Clips and biogs of the campy guest stars

Rated by Time Out as one of 2021 & 2019’s 50 Great Nights Out in London, Solve-Along has played to sell-out audiences across the UK, Ireland, the USA and Australia.

So grab your magnifying glasses and put your thinking caps on as you prepare to solve a classic whodunnit - can you crack the case before Jessica Fletcher?

  • Duration: approx. 2 hours (including interval)
  • Ticket price: £21
  • Age guidance: 16+
  • Seating: Unallocated (choose your own seat), so please arrive on time!
