Midsomer Murders season 25 will premiere on ITV1 on Sunday 14th April at 8pm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n So, not very long to wait at all! The acclaimed murder mystery series will once again see plenty of crimes plague the idyllic Midsomer county, but will DCI John Barnaby and DS Jamie Winters be able to crack them all?<\/p>\n Having first aired back in 1997, the crime drama has been a mainstay on our screens, providing gripping storylines, twists and even some cameo appearances.<\/p>\n More recently, presenter Holly Willoughby<\/a> featured on the show last year, after initially being announced back in 2021.<\/p>\n The Dancing on Ice<\/a> presenter had previously said that she was a long-running fan of the show, and appeared<\/a> in the episode The Witches of Angel\u2019s Rise.<\/p>\n Midsomer star Neil Dudgeon said at the time: \u201cWell, she\u2019s sort of a friend of the show, I suppose \u2013 she\u2019s a great fan of the show and we\u2019re always looking to broaden our casting net.\u201d<\/p>\n He added: \u201cShe was great, she was thoroughly professional. I think she was a bit nervous when she first arrived. She\u2019s playing a character called Holly Willoughby, I wouldn\u2019t like to say that it\u2019s herself.\u201d<\/p>\n Most interestingly, he also revealed at the time that her appearance was filmed a couple of years prior, due to the shooting schedule for the ITV drama.<\/p>\n So, there\u2019s plenty more episodes to come with such future planning in the pipeline.<\/p>\n As of yet, though, there haven\u2019t been any announcements made about further cameo appearances from any other well-known faces, but as is often the case, there will be plenty of guest stars to get acquainted with \u2013 and suspects in the process.<\/p> The cast<\/a> will once again be helmed by Neil Dudgeon as DCI John Barnaby, the younger cousin of DCI Tom Barnaby, Midsomer Murders\u2019 original star. He\u2019ll be joined by Nick Hendrix, who features as John\u2019s right-hand man, DS Jamie Winter.<\/p>\n We\u2019d be confident that Fiona Dolman will reprise her role as John\u2019s wife, Sarah, while we can expect to see a return for Annette Badland as pathologist Fleur Perkins.<\/p>\n Read more:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n As for what the new season will entail and who else will be joining our lead detectives, we\u2019ll just have to wait and see \u2013 but the previous season included cases centring on urban myths, an opera society theatre murder and the annual Midsomer Scarecrow Festival taking quite the deadly turn.<\/p>\n While exact episode details are yet to be released, we\u2019re sure another trip to Midsomer will only stir up plenty more weird and wonderful cases for the team to tackle \u2013 we can\u2019t wait!<\/p>\n![\"John](\"https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/itv-midsomer-murders-7b5057e.jpg?quality=90&resize=620%2C413\" "\\"Midsomer")
