Acorn TV announced today the North American premiere date for Season 25 of the hit mystery series, Midsomer Murders. Check out the trailer.
Talk about staying power. Between the light whimsy, the dark humor, and the creative methods of offing a person, folks love watching Midsomer Murders, which was recently recommissioned for a 26th season.
Set in the quaint and picturesque but deadly Midsomer County, Season 25 consists of four brand-new, feature-length murder mysteries for DCI John Barnaby (Neil Dudgeon, Life of Riley) and DS Winter (Nick Hendrix, Marcella) to solve, with assistance from pathologist Dr. Fleur Perkins (Annette Badland, Ted Lasso). And helping Barnaby chill when he isn’t looking for clues or interrogating potential suspects are his wife Sarah (Fiona Dolman, Unforgotten), daughter Betty (Isabel Shaw), and dog Paddy.
