The Inheritance

This started out as a fairly average family drama, father and three adult children. Larry Lamb played the role of the father, which wasn't promising as he's not a great actor. Then he dies and the family find out he has disinherited them and left his wife of 14 years his estate, which they didn't know he had. Surely a silly state of affairs. The actors who play the siblings have absolutely nothing in common with each other and no charisma.

The drama unfolds bringing in the current wife, the ex husband of one of the siblings who has loaned money to the siblings brother, the coroner and the police. Some suspicious characters are introduced into the mix and a highly unlikely scenario of circumstances arise. All happen without any humour and all lines are delivered in a deadpan serious manner. It is the most awful drama I have ever seen and one I will never watch again. I went from watching episode 1 to watching the last episode, thinking that even that was too long a watch.
