Midsomer Murders on ABC – Series 23 sees us back in the fictional picturesque county of Midsomer.
Each episode follows DCI Barnaby and his trusty sidekick DS Winter, as they endeavour to solve perlexing crimes while also exploring the quirks of this delightful but deadly county.
EPISODE 1
Deep in Blacktrees Forest, on the edge of Blacktrees-on-Marsh, is a concealed, state of the art, bombproof shelter. Since attending the scene of a terrible flood over two decades ago, Warren Kaine has grown increasingly terrified of life and the spectre of imminent disaster. Fear of terrorism, mad cow disease, tsunamis, asteroids, global warming and financial meltdown burrowed into his brain so deeply that he plunged his life savings into the building of the shelter.
Warren’s extreme paranoia has drawn other survivalists to the village and now Midsomer’s very own doomsday prepper group meet once a week to prepare for the end of days. But after the controversial ousting of a member, Warren suddenly has a target on his back. Preaching survival at any cost comes back to haunt him in the worst way imaginable as the Blacktrees Prophecy claims its first – but not last – victim.
