Just to settle things, the guy who played Barnaby's cousin was the driver for the Mrs Bradley Mystery's

Thanks Captain, I googled him and saw he had been in quite a few good dramas......it was good that they ran him alongside John Nettles.......at least we know the Midsomer murders will carry on.......just thinking up new plots will be fairly difficult......

No Von, that is where I got married......St. Mary's built 1145 I think......it was a shame they did not show it........no room inside for that Guillaume stone coffin though.......

The other one I thought of was on the way to Watford, after going through Kings Langley.......on the right hand side and set back from the road......

Just googled to find the church and it was filmed in the church in Little Missenden.........I know they go to all different locations......mind you when they filmed Pie in the Sky from the High Street, there were a lot of local places in that......

I didn't know he was a teacher Von.......I am glad he went into acting......always liked him in Bergerac and went to have a look at his classic car when we went to Jersey last year.......I think he has a holiday home over there.......anyway I know he visits there and sponsors many activities in Jersey......

Thanks Moonchld - I always wonder where these programmes are filmed!
About 20 years ago, 3 children from the school I worked in were in a 'Miss Marples' - they were playing in a ford.

Hello Maggie......I always thought they were filmed around Midsomer, which is somewhere on the way to the West Country I think.......and was surprised when they did a documentary on the series and they filmed a lot around Beds, Bucks, Herts.......which have a lot of pretty villages......we have one not far from us called Aldbury, complete with duckpond, tudor style houses and stocks.....yes, real ones.........

A series was filmed in Aldbury, can't remember its name but Diane Keen was in the cast, and it showed all the quaint old cottages......would love to live there but it is far too expensive.....

Just googled, it was Shillingbury Tales with Robin Nedwell
