Midsomer Murders season 22 resumed tonight (Sunday 29th May) with episode 4, The Scarecrow Murders, in which three people were brutally offed before being strung up like straw men and women.<\/p>\n

**SPOILERS AHEAD**<\/strong><\/p>\n

But in a shocking twist, it emerged that there wasn\u2019t just one killer running rampant, but a grand total of three: Naomi was killed by Rachel (real name Lisa), while her father and the reverend Oscar was murdered by Jack, and Thea was hammered to death by Samira.<\/p>\n

Adele was next on their list, but the police managed to stop the culprits before they could do their worst.<\/p>

Speaking to RadioTimes.com<\/a>, Nick Hendrix, who stars as Detective Sergeant Jamie Winter, said: \u201cThe challenge with something like Midsomer is: how do you keep it the same, but also make it different each time? And often there is just one murderer who\u2019s often killed one person by accident or a crime of passion, and then they\u2019ve killed two more people to try and cover their tracks.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd the idea of having multiple murderers just makes it a little more interesting, I think, and a little trickier because sometimes it feels too easy \u2013 well, not easy, but too well put together when Barnaby and Winter join the dots by the end, and it all comes together. So it\u2019s quite nice to have that different take on it.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re always trying to think of ways to break the tropes and break the pattern, while also keeping it the same. We always have red herrings. Everyone is basically a suspect. You don\u2019t really have any characters that aren\u2019t suspicious in some way, so I thought it was good. I thought it was clever and hopefully we keep doing that, keep trying to reinvent the wheel.\u201d<\/p>\n
