Midsomer Murders
The rural countryside of a fictional county in England provides the backdrop for this crime series based on the novels of Caroline Graham. A lush visual style, quirky characters, and ubiquitous red herrings recall classic British mysteries of the past. At the center of the earlier investigations is Detective Chief Inspector Tom Barnaby (John Nettles), while later programs feature Tom's younger cousin, DCI John Barnaby (Neil Dudgeon). The Barnabys have worked with four sergeants through the run of the series: Gavin Troy (Daniel Casey), Dan Scott (John Hopkins), Ben Jones (Jason Hughes), and Charlie Nelson (Gwilym Lee).
