Beamish, The Living Museum of the North is launching its very own version of the classic board game Cluedo.
Forget Miss Scarlet and Professor Plum. Instead, it might be the tram driver with the lead pipe in the sweet shop, or the music teacher with the candlestick in the dentist’s - after Beamish teamed up with Cluedo makers Hasbro to launch the museum edition of the popular game. To mark the game’s launch, visitors can join in a Beamish Cluedo event this half-term, from October 22 to 30 , and help to solve a murder mystery in The 1900s Town.
Celyn Gurden Williams, acting assistant director of engagement at Beamish Museum, said: “We’re very excited to be launching a Beamish Museum edition of Cluedo. It’s fantastic to be able to put a Beamish spin on this classic family game. We’re sure it will provide hours of fun as players use their detective skills to follow the trail around their favourite museum and pick up clues to try and solve the murder of Mr Green the grocer.”
