Producer James Goss said: "David Llewellyn has written a sad, creepy, art history murder mystery about a secret trapped in a painting that has haunted those who’ve encountered a place called Cadoc Point and seen an ancient temple that doesn’t exist. It’s just a beautiful and sad piece of work.
Star Tom Price said: It’s a really interesting and beautifully-built story as you would expect from David Llewellyn, who is an absolute genius! I like the Andy-Marple thing going on. He’s having a lot of fun – he’s off duty and is going rogue on his own mission which is unusual for him.”
Co-star Gareth Armstrong added: “I like that Merl has a past and that it’s gradually revealed to us bit by bit. He’s quite a regretful character when we first meet him and he has ghosts to exorcise. We learn more about him and his relationships, triumphs, sadness, loves, and failed love”
Writer David Llewellyn said: There is a certain generation of gay men who had to live quietly for a big part of their lives and then suddenly were able to talk about it. There are probably many Merls out there who still haven’t told their story but thankfully, I think there are plenty who will and it’s important to listen to them While we still can.
