Having joked about it last week, I’m beginning to wonder if I might actually be on to something because yet again Midsomer Murders gives us only two murders as opposed to the traditional three. Going a step further, both victims in ‘Red in Tooth and Claw’ are estate agents so one could even argue that … >
I don’t know if some new quota has recently come into effect, but for the second episode in a row there are only two Midsomer Murders as opposed to the usual three. In the case of ‘Last Man Out’ though, I think we can forgive the shortfall – because the potential third victim, saved in … >

‘Crime and Punishment’ is set in Bleakridge which is, we’re told, “the most remote village in Midsomer.” It also has a chronic shortage of ample parking – either that or, despite its remoteness, it is something of a Mecca for the tourist trade. Whatever the reason, there seems to be no end of cars parked … >
Midsomer Murders is back for a nineteenth season, and anybody still disappointed by last year’s killing-free opener need have no concerns this time. ‘The Village That Rose From The Dead’ has deaths galore, from the showy and gruesome (crushed by a tank) to the unexpected (local yokel Hugh Dennis boa-constricted to death).

Hendrix commented earlier this year: “I’m genuinely thrilled to join this bastion of British TV. It’s a real privilege to be part of a hugely successful and much loved show … >

There was a time when a lock-in at the local pub was something of a treat. But things change. All-day drinking has taken away the nefarious excitement; and when the lock-in is not with other likeminded extracurricular drinkers, but with the murderous landlord now revealed as your long-since adopted son, that’s also likely to take … >
Neil Dudgeon and Gwilym Lee are back for an extended run of six feature-length Midsomer Murders mysteries. Body snatching, UFO spotting and an international cycle race are just some of the weird and wonderful worlds that DCI John Barnaby and DS Charlie Nelson are immersed in for the long-running drama’s eighteenth season. Barnaby and Nelson … >
If anybody wanted to devise a Midsomer Murders drinking game then ‘disgruntled villagers’ should certainly be one cue to take a sip. Last week they were moaning about the sculpture park, this week it’s archaeologists. ‘Saints and Sinners’ starts with the discovery of a skeleton in the ground. It’s not the first body ever to … >
