剧情介绍
The reclusive life of elderly eccentrics William and Mary Bingham comes under police scrutiny when a social services investigator is killed. Barnaby and Jones must unearth generations of family secrets and decipher astronomical charts to find the murderer.
Barnaby's wife Sarah arrives to take up her job as a head mistress at Causton School. Officious social worker Gerry Dawkins has an awkward encounter with an artists' colony run by horse whisperer Maggie Viviani after a fruitless visit to elderly recluses William and Mary Bingham. Two days later his corpse is fished from a river. Through the offices of their bitchy daughter, stable owner Selina Stanton and her roguish husband Eddie, a prospective Euro M.P. Barnaby visits Mr. and Mrs. Bingham, who are hospitable but vague. Mary, however, furtively asks him to return to see her but is killed soon after. Thirty-five years earlier the Binghams' son and daughter, Robin and Jennifer, died when their car plunged into a river. Robin's body was recovered but Jennifer was never found and has forged a new identity for herself, reuniting her with Selena. Once more Jones comes to Barnaby's rescue when he confronts a killer whose family, unsurprisingly for Midsomer, has dark secrets.
S14E02 很容易猜到。而且囤积癖这个习惯也是知道最后肯定要起作用。
进展比较慢，整个节奏比起之前要缓了一点感觉。一开始我还以为会是身份替换梗，不过实际也差不多。话说Jones也太可爱了，救人那段好像要飞起来wwwww秘密不算黑暗了吧，看多了这类作品感觉自己可能真的重口起来了。。。
1.所谓的Dark Secret其实满有Midsomer风格，而且提示很明显，所以一开始就猜到了；2.Edward Fox真有凶手缘，由此看来他在《空幻之屋》中是被严重浪费了；3.这两集Jones有往小强发展的趋势。
