Talk:Midsomer Murders

Work in progress

I completed Seasons 1-7 and partially made Season 8. I hope to finish the work on Seasons 8-12 in a week, then I'll need to purchase Seasons 13-15 to work on them. If anyone wants to make any contribution for this page, please let me complete the work at first. Greg-Z (talk) 14:09, 25 November 2012 (EST)

Netflix has seasons 1-13 on Instant View, so I can pitch in Season 13 if need be. Is this something you recommend watching from the start or could I just start at Season 13? --Funkychinaman (talk) 14:18, 25 November 2012 (EST)

In case you like old-fashioned English detective stories, I recommend you to watch all series from the beginning of Season 1. :) As to me, I like them all. Concerning the weapons, there are interesting scenes in S11E1 Shot at Dawn where a reenactment of Somme battle is seen, and S5E3 Ring Out Your Dead with a collection of antic handguns.

Good series. I've watched it for several years. glad to see it now has a page.--Jcordell (talk) 23:28, 25 November 2012 (EST)

Seasons 8 and 9 are completed. S10-12 will take more time than I expected, so the work will not be complete next week. But I'll try. Greg-Z (talk) 12:24, 30 November 2012 (EST)

Seasons 10 and 11 are complete. I had no chance to purchase or rent Seasons 13 and later so I'll work on Season 12 in several days, and my work on Midsomer Murders will be finished. Greg-Z (talk) 08:11, 7 December 2012 (EST)

Season 12 complete, and so is my work on this TV series.Greg-Z (talk) 10:30, 9 December 2012 (EST)

Season 14 complete. Season 13 is temporary skipped, I'll return to it later. Greg-Z (talk) 11:50, 7 October 2013 (EDT)

Season 13 complete. Greg-Z (talk) 15:03, 20 October 2013 (EDT)

Season 15 complete. It was the most poor one on firearms. I don't think that I will ever watch Season 16 - I don't like the new face of "Midsomer Murders". So my work on this page is finally completed. Greg-Z (talk) 13:08, 2 November 2013 (EDT)

Season 16 complete. It's really boring, I don't recommend it to any fan of Old Good Midsomer Murders. A real waste of time and money. And very little for IMFDB. Greg-Z (talk) 15:05, 13 August 2014 (EDT)

"Unidentified sporting pistol "

I think they may be (some airsoft variation of) Sig Sauer X-Six series pistols..? Pawelm (talk) 14:36, 25 November 2012 (EST)

A good guess, thanks! I'll try to find a photo of airsoft X-Six to compare. Greg-Z (talk) 14:39, 25 November 2012 (EST)

What's this?

Is it a Quad Browning M2 or something else (maybe not a weapon at all)? This scene takes place in a private museum of WW2 cars and aircrafts.

Looks like a post-WW2 ZPU-4 quad 14.5mm AA gun. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b7/ZPU-4_in_Saint_Petersburg.jpg --Mandolin (talk) 00:47, 3 November 2013 (EDT)

Thank you, it's a good guess. Greg-Z (talk) 12:11, 4 November 2013 (EST)

Flare Gun ( Un ID'd )

The flare gun seems to be a Webley & Scott No.1 MkV cut down or a No.2 MkV. -SeptemberJack (talk) 20:21, 18 April 2017 (EDT)

Nevermind, it's a No.1 MkV. The flare on the barrel seems to be cut off though. -SeptemberJack (talk)

I don't think that it is. Firstly, the Webley only has a 1" bore whereas this appears to be much larger. Secondly, the bottom of the grip on the Webley is rounded but this is flat. Thirdly, it doesn't appear to have the barrel latch over the top of the breech suggesting that it locks in a different way. There are other differences as well, such as the trigger guard doesn't end in quite the right place, the shape of the back of the frame is different, and the Webley has more pins on the side of the frame than this. --commando552 (talk) 05:51, 19 April 2017 (EDT)

Page dividing

Maybe, it's useful to divide this page to individual articles for each seasons, due this TV serial is continy airing (Season 19 is aired now) and some common firearms, like double barreled shotguns not complitely listed for each actors and episodes due screenshots number limited. Pyramid Silent (talk) 06:29, 19 April 2017 (EDT)

I have seasons 17 and 18 but they aren't in my current to-do list. Maybe later. And then I'll think about splitting the page as it is a large piece of work. Greg-Z (talk) 03:01, 21 April 2017 (EDT)
