Find out what happened and why in the second episode of series 7 of Waking the Dead. Read theSins recap in the Evidence Room.

Remember, all of the what happened and whys tell all, so if you have not seen the episode, you’ll be spoiled.

The Mystery Writers of America will be holding their 62nd Annual Edgar Awards on May 1, 2008 and in the running for Best Television Episode Teleplay is none other than Declan Croghan for his work on series 6’s Yarhrzeit. Note, this is for the BBC America edited down version.

The full list for this category is:

“It’s Alive” - Dexter, Teleplay by Daniel Cerone (Showtime)
“Yahrzeit” - Waking the Dead, Teleplay by Declan Croghan (BBC America)
“Pie-Lette” - Pushing Daisies, Teleplay by Bryan Fuller (ABC/Warner Bros Television
“Senseless” - Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Story by Warren Leight & Siobhan Byrne O’Connor, Teleplay by Julie Martin & Siobhan Byrne O’Connor (Wolf Films/NBC Universal)
“Pilot” - Burn Notice, Teleplay by Matt Nix (USA Network/Fox Television Studios)

The awards banquet will be held in New York City at the Grand Hyatt Hotel and tickets are selling for $175 per person. Al Roker will be hosting the event. On Tuesday & Wednesday, April 29-30, 2008 they are also holding a symposium which actually sounds pretty cool for any mystery fan.

One of the sessions claims to answer the question: What do Forensic Pathologists and Forensic Psychologists really do? My guess is that it won’t resemble anything we see Grace or Frankie and her replacements ever do on Waking the Dead.

The first part of Sins drew 6.3 million viewers, topping the nearest competitor, Taggart, by roughly 1.6 million.

A bunch of football (soccer) fans may never know how the mystery turned out because the second half of Sins could only convince 5.9 million viewers to turn from Chelsea and Liverpool. Still, Waking the Dead’s viewers did represent a very respectable 24 percent of the overall audience.
