Midsomer murders marathon!
Well, I bought madre the first 2 box sets for Yule and she’s finally getting round to watching them and since I like them too (and can catch some tasty madre cooking rather than the wonderful meals wecook reheat. Besides, my brother has visited which means there is nothing to eat until we go shopping - VIKING RAIDS left more behind than my brother. Locusts couldn’t strip the kitchen more).
Of course, we’re only 6 episodes in (because each episode is a good 90 mins long):
Madre: I wouldn’t want to live in Midsomer, it’s the most dangerous place in the world (being a small rural county plagued with more murders than Hull)
Me: I’d love it, I’d arrange a Pride Parade and it would all be fine.
Madre: Pride Parades stop murder?
Me: When there’s that many closet cases, yeah
Madre: Closet cases?
Me: We’re 6 programmes in and we’ve had, what, 4-5 homosexual couples? All closeted. San Francisco is straighter than this place.
Madre: Being in the closet causes murder then?
Me: Definitely
Madre: Did you plan on a killing spree if you hadn’t come out?
Me: Yep, that closet door stayed closed and I’d be stabbing everyone around me.
Madre: Stabbing? Think of the blood you’d get everywhere! You’d be caught and have to plead insanity.
Me: Hello, kind of driven insane, planning wasn't part of it. Besides, I’d clean it up...
Madre: And then they’d pull out the luminol and arrest you. And that would destroy your insanity plea.
Me: Well I’d be on a mad killing spree...
Madre: So? I’m a diabetic, your dad has high blood pressure - all that education and you didn’t even think to meddle with our pills.
She watches far too many forensic programmes on television. Yes, yes she does. If she ever took it in her head to kill my father I am sure we’d never know about it.
