Get ready for the 100th episode of Britain’s best-loved detective series starring Neil Dudgeon as DCI John Barnaby, who continues to fight crime in the beautiful but deadly villages of Midsomer. Eric Calder, the chairman of Calder’s Biscuits in Badger’s Drift, is killed in a hotel room on a business trip to Copenhagen. Barnaby and Nelson are called in to assist in the investigation and soon find Calder had more than biscuits linking him to the Danish capital. When another body is found they travel to Denmark to join forces with the Copenhagen cops.
This special edition features the 100th episode of Midsomer Murders, an interview with Director Alex Pillai and a special Behind the Scenes bonus feature.
*** You can see my review of the Midsomer Murders - The Killings of Copenhagen DVD here ***
If you're a fan of the show, you might like the following trivia :
Despite its picture postcard setting, more than 300 people have died before their time in Midsomer. A further nine have died from natural causes. There will have been 281 murders, 12 accidental deaths and 11 suicides by the time that the 100th episode is transmitted. The most dangerous village with the highest death toll is Badger’s Drift, setting of the very first episode and UK base for the 100th.
Bizarre and gruesome murder implements since the series began include death by cow, electrocution from a faulty microphone, death by poisonous frog, a French guillotine, a hatpin in the ear, bottles of relish, a tower of newspapers, a gargoyle from a roof and shelves of Midsomer Blue cheese.
Midsomer Murders attracts top viewing figures on ITV and is one of the UK’s best programming exports with sales to 225 territories, from Afghanistan to Zambia. It is also a hit on Facebook, where the official page has over 125,000 fans.
