When patrons at the pub are similarly affected, Fleur has a hunch that some seeded rolls that Chrissie ate were contaminated.<\/p>\n<p>When a farmer is murdered, Barnaby and Winter must then work out the truth before the killer can strike again.<\/p>\n<p>Hendrix has revealed that the episode features \u201ca genuinely big stunt\u201d, explaining: \u201cWe were filming at Mapledurham, which is the last working watermill on the Thames.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was this big Archimedes\u2019 screw, which is this massive sort of drill-like turbine that is part of the mill, because it churns the water which turns the wheel that mills the grain \u2013 or something like that!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, we were essentially in a lake around a water mill. And a character is tied to this huge screw, they are knocked unconscious, and the screw is slowly pulling them towards certain death.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWinter arrives, jumps out of the car and leaps from some height into the water. My aim is to hold up the victim while trying to untie them. And it was one of those stunts where I thought, \u2018This will be no big deal, I\u2019m a pretty competent swimmer.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I\u2019ll tell you what, it was really, really hard work.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cObviously, it was all controlled and safe, but the general pressure of the water makes it very hard, and I\u2019m pretty fit. But by the end of it we were both shattered, but I just feel it was a really great day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd those days, I love them because I feel like the stunt team really have something to help us with, we really have stuff to do and it\u2019s actually quite hard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, by the end of the day, you have that feeling of achievement. I think we really pulled that off, and I hope it\u2019s going to look good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Midsomer Murders continues on ITV1 on Tuesday 23rd July at 8pm.
