About This Program ✦
The Sea Glass is a television programme presented in the form of an episode. It falls within the episode genre, offering a self‑contained narrative that follows a single investigative thread. The production is titled The Sea Glass and is listed simply as a programme of this type. In the centre of the story, a detective takes on the case of a fisherman whose corpse was discovered entangled in the net of a trawler. The investigation focuses on uncovering how the victim met his end, with particular attention paid to the circumstances that led to his body being caught in the fishing gear. The detective must piece together the evidence surrounding this grim find. As the inquiry progresses, the possibility emerges that the fisherman’s death may not have been accidental but rather linked to a longstanding family feud. This suggestion adds a layer of complexity, implying that personal animosities could have driven the murder. The detective therefore considers both the physical evidence and the potential motive rooted in family conflict. The episode builds its tension around the juxtaposition of the sea’s routine work—trawling and netting—and the sudden, violent interruption of a familial dispute. By concentrating on the detective’s pursuit of truth, The Sea Glass offers a concise yet focused look at a murder intertwined with domestic rivalry.
