S17E1, The Dagger Club


S17E1, The Dagger Club

It's a beautiful day to take a bicycle ride through the quaint village--but whatever you do, and wherever in Midsomer--do not open any mysterious packages. Or keep valuable manuscripts in your possession.. Or just live. What else is new? Oh, the new addition to the cast: Baby Betty is so adorable and sweet! But the crying, the dirty nappies, the sleep deprivation--not lovely.

Old Kate and old Charlie are still here in this first episode of Season 17. And the ever talented and bright Una Stubbs, may she rest in peace, lights up the episode. The scenery is just fantastic and it gets quite atmospheric towards the end with its dreary cool graveyard and foggy woods and suspenseful string music. Otherwise, there's no new tale to tell. This one's just eye candy!
