Midsomer Murders
Season 12 Episode 1 - The Dogleg Murders
No one could suspect that a prestigious golf club would be the setting for murder, but when one of the major members is found dead, bludgeoned to death in a thicket next to the 13th hole, Barnaby and Jones try to determine what made him leave the fairway. It seems the club has a rift between the snobbish members, and local villagers, the latter only allowed onto the course for a few hours a week. Before long, another member turns up dead, and the detectives soon find the club has a hidden history, involving gambling, illegal money lending and assault, prompting the pair to determine if a club member, or one of its staff, is responsible for the deeds.

S12:E02 - The Black Book
A newly discovered masterpiece by landscape artist Henry Hogson causes a stir when it is auctioned for £400,000 - just hours before its former owner is tortured and killed. When another Hogson is stolen, Barnaby decides to become an expert on the Midsomer painter, with the help of art teacher Matilda Simms (Susannah Harker). He soon realises the paintings are not what they seem - but the death toll is rising.
S12:E03 - Secrets and Spies
Former secret agent Geoffrey Larkin arrives in Midsomer Parva and stays at Allenby House, a country mansion run by former spies Sir Malcolm Frazer (Benjamin Whitrow), his son Nicky (Peter Davison) and Nicky's wife Jenny (Alice Krige) as a safe house. Geoffrey is soon gashed to death after a cricket match in Midsomer Parva, and the locals blame the 'beast of Midsomer'. However, Barnaby - a former spy himself - soon realises that the killing has links to Allenby House and Cold War Berlin, but is initially thrown off the case by MI6. But when a further murder occurs MI6 Agent Glen Jarvis (Neil Stuke) asks Barnaby back on the case.
S12:E04 - The Glitch
Midsomer University science fellow and cycling enthusiast George Jeffers (David Haig) threatens to make public a problem with his state-of-the-art invention Kernel Logic, but American software boss Clinton Finn fears he will lose millions if the truth comes out. When a schoolteacher is killed in a hit-and-run, Barnaby suspects Jeffers was the intended target. The subsequent murder of a fellow cyclist (Philip Jackson) brings the involvement of fellow University associates (Jonathan Cecil and Jim Norton) into sharper focus.
S12:E05 - Small Mercies
In the peaceful village of Little Worthy, Bob Moss was about to open up his beloved model village, when he found a gruesome extra attraction. Young local, Richard Tanner, had been stabbed in the side and his corpse tied down like Gulliver in Lilliput. Barnaby and Jones wonder who wanted him dead, but when the woman he was secretly meeting is killed during the village's Crazy Craft race, the pair have to delve in and discover who might be lying and hiding secrets.
S12:E06 - The Creeper
A cat burglar is on the loose, one known as "the Creeper", but the wave of burglaries he or she have committed, seem to have finally led to murder, when David Roper (Rik Mayall) is found smothered in his bed on the Chettham family estate. Yet Barnaby and Jones learn he may have been planning to write a book that could have been quite uncomfortable for someone, leading the pair to determine whether members of the Chettham family, or their friends, were responsible.
S12:E07 - The Great and the Good
A sleep-walking school teacher (Nancy Carroll) starts to believe she has slit the throats of her mentor (Tim Wylton) and a local handyman man in her sleep, but her friends (Paola Dionisotti and Monica Dolan) are not convinced that she is the culprit, nor is Barnaby. A local philanthropist (Paul Chapman) and his social-climbing wife (Suzanne Burden) are planning the annual Frobisher night - but will it go without a hitch, and can they identify the killer?
