Logan, who is most recognisable from her role as Mrs Hughes on Downton Abbey, plays a puzzle expert who joins forces with the local police to solve a string of murders in the sleepy town of Bakerbury.
Logan has revealed she was a little apprehensive about playing the lead role but that her excitement about the part proved too strong.
"I did tell him I was a little bit trepidatious because I knew the workload was going to be extraordinary – Cora has so much to do and so many lines. But eventually I had a talk to myself and said, “We can do this!”. I said yes and off we went…"
"I was also in a show called Guilt, which was different as well because it was more of a black comedy. The Puzzle Lady was appealing to me because it’s just so wacky and different, and ultimately entertaining I hope. I hope that people enjoy it for its entertainment value. You can’t accuse this show of being bleak.”
Logan as Cora Felton was introduced to audiences in the Murder Most Puzzling premiere on 5 on Thursday evening and will return in the second episode, which sees her cross paths with a prison inmate who insists he has been wrongly found guilty of killing his ex-girlfriend.
