Filmed in Bledlow, Buckinghamshire; Littlewick Green (as Fletcher's Cross), Berkshire; and Greys Court, Henley-on -Thames, Wallington, Wallingford, in Oxfordshire. Plenty of lovely English scenery to go around including cricket matches and vast rolling estates. Scroll all the way down for my commentary. Enjoy your stroll!
Commentary:
This episode struck me as odd for a couple of reasons. Joyce all the sudden wants a new home, but why? I already am attached to their current dark brick 2 story home with maroon stair rails! But alas, it's not just about me, is it? Ha. Also, suddenly Cully is speaking about her boyfriend, Nico (from Season 1's Death of a Hollow Man), whom she's dated for 2 years already? What? What about her flirtations with the drama teacher in Death's Shadow just 2 episodes ago, not to mention her budding romance with Troy? Well, just an editing glitch or jump to in the series.
But here, Tom utters the best line in all of Midsomer Murders, one that captures the entire series and gives a comic nod to us loyal viewers who know it speaks of what we all know! Haha! Love it.
"Every time I go to any Midsomer village, it's always the same thing: blackmails, sexual deviance, suicide, and murder!"
Other than that, the story is fairly interesting (excluding the born again couple who enjoy being naughty, yuck and puke). Although, the ending is far-fetched again when thinking about the motive being an act of revenge for an incident done decades ago. Then again, I suppose revenge and anger can make a mother and daughter go mad (hint, hint). You just never know in Midsomer!
