Midsomer Murders is one of those crime dramas that I can’t get enough of. Whenever older episodes are re-shown - especially if they star John Nettles as DCI Tom Barnaby - I’ll still be transfixed watching them.
There’s something strangely comforting about the ITV show as although it features plenty of gruesome murders, it doesn’t take itself too seriously. From someone being eaten by a wild boar in Midsomer Murders Wild Harvest to a character being beaten to death with a block of cheese in another episode, there’s a layer of the ridiculous that makes it so enjoyable.
