As I was watching it, I started thinking to myself that they had done a good bit of casting in finding two actors who looked as though they could be brothers to play the twins.

I'm really chuffed with this recent episode. Brilliant stuff, plenty of humour and the reviews have been really positive. The ratings are up to 6.1 million viewers - Midsomer is definitely back on track .

Am I the only one who watched the whole programme and did not realise until the credits that it was the same actor?

The latest episode was an improvement. But having watched some old episodes with Tom, I realise how much charm it's lost. I miss Tom, Joyce and Cully. John is just a bit too smug for me at times.

6.1m viewers who couldn't be arsed to get up and change channel. (and I include myself in that).
It was rubbish. I loved it and thought it was brilliant! The twitter feedback for this episode was actually very positive in comparison to the earlier episodes of the previous series. Roll on the next episode.

I thought that it was the best one so far, Neil is no the new Barnaby why can't people just enjoy it. Some of the old MM were a bit daft at times as well, but not many people moaned because they liked John Nettles,so cut Neil etc a bit of slack it is never easy taking over from someone else after such a long time
I have been waiting to see if anyone mentions the er nylon looking hair. Perhaps just me then. |

I didn't enjoy John Nettles in the part all that much and Cully was a waste of space to me, as if someone was giving her the job as a favour. I couldn't see the point of her being in it unless it was for eye candy?

Had to smile about the headless horseman, recalling the rhyme in the Will Hay film Ask A Policeman (the cops couldn't remember the last line!)
When the tide runs low in the smugglers' cove And the 'eadless 'orseman is seen above, He drives along with his wild hallo... And that's the time when the smugglers go in their little boats to the schooner, and bring back the kegs of brandy and rum and put them all in the Devil's Cave below |

![]() I absolutely loved Harvey, or didn't I hear him called Clive or Clyde ? Not sure which........By the way he is Black and white ![]() does that count ?No doubt when the current producer bows out at the end of this season we will get an influx of foreign faces, perhaps just to be extra P.C.the new chief inspector of the nick will be black or Asian, seems to be a favourite theme on TV nowadays, (as well as real life). I'll enjoy it until then. |

The problem I'm having with the new series is that I find John Barnaby to be not very likeable.There is just no warmth in the character and I don't like the way he treats Jones, or the way that they seem to have totally re-written the character of Jones.
The pacing is slow, the stories bland and forgettable but worst of all was the last ten minutes where the murderer had been caught before the final ad break and we had ten minutes of analysis. I appreciate the show has to move on but I just feel it has lost its quirky, eccentric sense of direction. Oh how I miss the twinkle in Tom Barnaby's eyes and his easy-going relaxed manner with Jones.

When will the great British public start to realise that just because people are not white does not mean they are 'foreign'?!!

Wasn't a classic not in the Rainbirds, Mike Spicer, episodes that's for sure. Did take a while to get going.

"What's wrong with this picture?"
Jones' girlfriend kept turning up with a clean uniform but a dirty face. |
