DCI Tom Barnaby (John Nettles) of the Midsomer Constabulary staring straight into the camera, and your soul. DS Dan Scott (John Hopkins) as backup.

Have you ever been stared at this intently in your entire life

Hehe

Every single human being in Surrey-on-Idledick is struck dead on a single day and it turns out 3 different wealthy families were all visiting at the same time and their butlers were all the illegitimate sons of the ailing patriarchs

I am reading an Agatha Christie book, no. 3 in the Miss Marple series, and would you care to guess what percentage of the book elapses before our hero detective makes an appearance?

73%!!

So yeah. Write your thing the way you want, there are fewer rules than you think!

Blurry Father brown standing off on the distance obviously spying on the people the camera is focusing on is killing me dead.

Have a lovely day 🦜

Not at all unpleasant, I admit

Christie's detectives ruin about 46 friendships for every killer they catch.

Poirot, ever damn time: And it was YOU, Sister Mary Ambrose, who burned those papers to hide the fact that you are a recovering kleptomaniac!
Sister Mary Ambrose: So first of all, what the fuck?

Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes has to rank among the greatest casting coups in history.

He's so good I sometimes believe in time travel. That someone went back in time and got Arthur Conan Doyle to invent Sherlock Holmes just so Jeremy Brett could play him a hundred years later.

Inspector Bucket (Stephen Rea) with the poor Oliver Twist (Leonardo Dickens. Yes, the perfect name for a child actor playing an orphan.)

Monday.

:D

I had to type SOMETHING, for I am so wholesome I refuse post without alt (yet I apparently do refuse to actually describe the image for those who need descriptions 🤔 – although I'm pretty sure everyone knows what was the sentiment of the image, if they've read this thread)

Well, you sure aren't the Mrs. Hudson type

Well then there's just Moriarty, AND LET ME SAY THAT SUITS YOU PERFECTLY

I hesitate to propose Holmes or Watson 😬

Now I'm kind of half hoping it's Lovejoy or Columbo or Japp (because, you know, that'd be fun)

Indeed!

Please let it not be Marple

Or Brown. Or Frost. Or Hastings.

Oh no

My cosy mystery account is about to get a whole lot less cosy, isn't it

Of the "no shit" variety?

MOTHERF@&$
