What Season 21 of Midsomer Murders

Season 21 of Midsomer Murders keeps the show's usual format: Chief Inspector Tom Barnaby, along with Winter, arrives in a quiet village in the county and searches among its residents for the culprit. In the first episode, a dance competition pits rival dancers, jealous couples and sponsors with questionable interests against one another, while Barnaby receives a visit from his father, with whom he has a distant relationship. In the second, the world of dollhouses collides with the real estate market, and an agent with many enemies makes everyone a suspect. In the third, the disappearance of some bees unsettles the residents of Granville Norton. The fourth introduces Solomon Gorge, where two rival groups converge over the same weekend.
