Mad Over Midsomer Murders!

By Dennis Dermody

Midsomer Murders

You have to check out this fabulous box set on DVD: Midsomer Murders (The Early Cases). It's a marvelous British mystery series based on the books by Caroline Graham with a charismatic John Nettles as Detective Chief Inspector Barnaby with his intolerant but trusty sidekick DS Gavin Troy (Daniel Casey). The two of them solve bizarre crimes in the seemingly charming English countryside. There’s nice macabre, kinky, twists and sparkling wit and charm as well. This is a great introduction to this terrific series and some terrific people show up as well -- Emily Mortimer, Imelda Staunton, even Orlando Bloom, who ends up stuck with a pitchfork! Trust me, stick this in and you’ll be so hooked.
