This Iconic Long-Running British Detective Series Just Got a Major Update

As exclusively revealed by Variety, the iconic Midsomer Murders is set to return to television for a groundbreaking 25th time, with production officially underway on the milestone outing. Debuting all the way back in 1997, British TV's best-loved crime procedural has gone through many pivotal changes throughout its almost 30 years on our screens, most notably when John Nettles' DCI Tom Barnaby was sadly replaced in 2011 by the current chief inspector — and Tom's younger cousin — John (Neil Dudgeon).
