Some of the residents of Midsomer Worthy are trying to prevent James Harrington from turning Setwale Woods into a housing estate. Led by a solicitor, Bernadette Sullivan, and a local farmer, Simon Bartlett, who also happen to be having an affair, they haven't had much success in court. When Bartlett's wife Victoria is found dead in the woods, Barnaby and Troy must first determine is if her murder is related to the planned development or something as yet unknown. The information provided by two inquisitive children, who see the investigation as a fascinating game, proves invaluable in solving the crime.

About this show

Jez Gladberry is found murdered in the woods, with several bruises on his face from a metal claw, and a shot in the head from a silver bullet. A while later, a young woman is found killed, hanging from a gravestone, with a funeral wreath around her neck. Some time before the murders, a local photographer, Steve Skelton, won a competition with his own creation of The Wolf Hunter. Has the myth about The Wolf Hunter started just like a murderous reality, or does the killer want to put the blame on Steve who created The Wolf Hunter? It seems that a feeling of being lonely and being abandoned is what this case is all about.

I was delighted to accidentally come across this wonderful series. I love it. I can watch it free on Comcast and have been doing so. I enjoy watching Britain made movies. These series are focused in a quaint town with British gardens and thatched roofs. You rarely ever figure out who did it. My DVR went up and now I cannot watch on TV. I miss it, even though I will continue watching once I get another dvr.

The one thing that baffles me ; is how, within such an idyllic setting as Midsomer appears to be, do so many MURDERS occur ? I'd have to call it The Murder Capital of the free world. I must admit that my thought is only based on seeing maybe 3 episodes; so I don't know if Midsomer has a high crime area within it, or is really the size of New England and just as populated , and as diverse I do not know.

The latest playing DCI BARNABY changed me from like to loving the show. Barnaby's wife is lovely and both are well suited actors with each other. And they are "happy" cast rather than silly. Much improved and no sounds of breathing-itis.
