Plot Summary:The village of Midsomer Mallow is in competition for the title of the "perfect village". Joyce Barnaby has already won her own competition and is now one of the "perfect village" judges. Meanwhile, Barnaby and Troy are investigating a series of break-ins in the area. When the thief, Peter Drinkwater, is found murdered, there are no end of suspects: a jealous husband; a spurned girlfriend and her irate parents; one of the robbery victims who is not being entirely truthful with the police; and finally several members of the village committee whose only concern is how the death will affect their chances in the perfect village competition. In the end, Barnaby must establish the link between these most recent events and a murder some years earlier.

完美小镇有这么多疯批蛮容易让人联想到《热血警探》的，还是说英国小镇就是这幅鬼样23333333
Orlando Bloom打了个酱油😅然后这一集好马普尔啊……
S3E03
开花有客串，又嫩又帅发现村子里好多活动，虽然好多谋杀案，但感觉他们日常蛮开心的，羡慕探长老婆当评委&探长女儿写书采访
Orlando Bloom年轻时好嫩！里面居然还提到了指环王~好神奇穿越的感觉~~ 整个故事有点像是在致敬Annabelle？虽然案件相对普通，但整个气氛还不错！
S03E03 奥兰多客串 口误暗示 案中案
3.5；第一起案件表象单纯，但仍不足以破案，倒是卷入更多人和信息后，随着叙诡的增加，反而提供更广的视野；当然前后两部分的捏合仍有牵强。
拿着草耙子的杀人狂
开头的旧案颇诡谲，后续倒是稍许平和了一些。演员老头线的误导感浓烈。巴纳比对妻子保密的行为颇有些意思www
S03E03，
偶遇开花，巧合地还还提了一句老托和Lothlorien哈哈。可能也是小村子的原因，这个系列老觉得会走出一个马普尔。
安东尼·霍洛维茨写什么都有种阿婆仿作的味道。
就是骇人命案事件薄的303，很不错。
1.无论凶手身份、障眼法、结局都是很有阿婆风格的一集，尤其凶手的结局明显是受《破镜谋杀案》的启发，名字缩写这处线索则类似于《哑证人》；2.Horowitz编剧擅长追溯式案情，这样的好处在于首尾呼应，不足在于中段沉闷拖沓；3.凶手的身份在第一起案件后很难想到，第二起案件后就显而易见了。
