Midsomer's creative team Bentley Productions have announced that, to
celebrate its 100th episode of the enduringly popular crime series, DCI Barnaby
(Neil Dudgeon) will be
travelling to Denmark to investigate the discovery of a body, with links that go
all the way to Badger's Drift - a location longtime Midsomer fans will recognise
as the first ever murder location of the series.


And Nordic Noir fans will recognise some familiar faces, with Ann Eleonora Jorgensen
(Pernille Birk Larsen in 'The Killing') and Birgitte Hjort Sorensen
(journalist Katrine Fønsmark in 'Borgen') among the cast.


This will also be a special occasion in that it is the first time the
'Midsomer Murders' team have gone beyond British shores to film.

'Midsomer' is already a firm favourite on Danish television, where it has
been running for 12 years, under the name 'Barnaby'. The programme is sold
internationally to 225 territories.

Filming today on The Game a new BBC Drama set in 1973 - Call time was 9.30am Quite a lot of us today 40+ Costumed up in our 70's Gear and filming over at Flecthers Walk by Victoria Square.
With Peter, Neil, Richard, Chantelle, Nice scene with Racheal Stirling (Diana Riggs daughter ) wrapped at 8.20pm

 Tom  Hughes and Brian Cox are to star in
BBC One's new spy drama The  Game.

The Cold War thriller - which
starts shooting this month - has  been devised by Being Human creator
Toby Whithouse.

The Game will follow the activities of a secret committee investigating
  a potentially devastating Soviet plot, codenamed Operation Glass.

The 
head of MI5 - codenamed Daddy (Cox) - assembles a team of top operatives, 
including troubled but genius interrogator Joe Lambe (Hughes) and the rakish 
head of counter-espionage Bobby Waterhouse (Paul Ritter).

Making up the 
rest of the team are Waterhouse's quick-witted deputy Sarah Montag (Victoria 
Hamilton), her husband Alan (Jonathan Aris) - an expert in bugging and 
interception - Special Branch detective Jim Fenchurch (Shaun Dooley) and 
secretary Wendy Straw (Chloe Pirrie).

Each episode, the team will uncover
  a new Soviet sleeper agent working on Operation Glass in the UK - and each name
  on their list brings them one step closer to understanding Operation 
Glass.

Toby Whithouse promised that The Game will be "a 
thrilling mystery, with exciting and complex characters".

"These are some of the finest actors working in television today and it's an 
honour to have them on our show," said the writer and executive 
producer.

Tom Hughes said: "Joe is the type of character that you come 
across very rarely - on the surface one person, but inside someone entirely 
different.

"He's running away from himself. It is those parts that always
  attract me, the ones that don't just tick a box, they challenge. I couldn't be 
more delighted to have signed up for this project."

Brian Cox added: "I 
am delighted to be part of the new BBC One drama The Game. The rich 
character-driven storylines were a real draw, and really capture the intense 
feeling of the cold war period."

A six-part hour-long drama, The 
Game
will film in Birmingham, London and Wales.
