The Madame Blanc Mysteries cast

Sally Lindsay plays Jean White while Sue Vincent plays Gloria, Jean’s best friend.

Sue Holderness plays Judith and Robin Askwith plays Jeremy.

As well as starring, the series is co-written by Sally Lindsay and Sue Vincent.

Creator and Lead Writer Sally Lindsay said: “I’ve always been fascinated by the worlds of antiques and Agatha Christie, so putting the two together and creating the world of St.Victoire with Sue has been an absolute joy.

“We are so excited to show the audience the stunning sunny locations and beautiful antiques cloaked in a veil of mystery and can’t wait for you to see what Jean unravels as she embarks on her new life in the sun.”

Sebastian Cardwell, deputy director of Programmes at Channel 5, ViacomCBS Networks UK, added: “Channel 5’s return to original Drama has been a great success, especially with Sally Lindsay starring in Cold Call in 2019, which was a real hit with our viewers.

“With a brilliant creative team at the helm, I have no doubt that this series will also have viewers hooked from the very beginning, impatiently waiting for the mystery to unravel in Saint Victoire!”
