Dwelling and Sociality in Midsomer Murders
Landscapes of Thrift and Dwelling: Dwelling and Sociality in Midsomer Murders By Stefan Zahlmann Abstract In its long history of airing the popular crime series Midsomer Murders does not only present various murder cases but also a glimpse into the opinions on gender, sexuality, age and ethnicity. These opinions mirror the attitude of the producers as well as the anticipated expectations of the audience. The dicussion of these aspects are inseperately linked to the categories of thrift and dwelling and it seems that the ways of living in Midsomer County are always overwriting the questions of guilt, atonement and punishment. Furthermore the episodes of the series offer strategies to an aesthetic evaluation of sociality in an fictional countryside. Here murders become not only a question of morality and crime but show the depth of human nature as a hidden reality underneath the scenery of rural purity. Keywords: Midsomer Murders, cottage, mansion, public house, cultural diversity, sexuality. Zahlmann, Stefan: “Landsacpes of Thrift and Dwelling: Dwelling and Sociality in Midsomer Murders”, Culture Unbound, Volume 11, issue 3–4, 2019: 466–484. Published by Linköping University Electronic Press: http://www.cultureunbound. ep.liu.se Culture Unbound Journal of Current Cultural Research Introduction When I was asked to contribute to a thematic section about thrift and dwelling in popular media, I immediately thought of Midsomer Murders. It is obviously a production that is closely tied to the era of “austerity Britain (1939-53)” (Bramall 2013: 1) and its long aftermath stretching to the present. In this series thrift and dwelling are aspects that allow the audience to follow not only a murder case but the struggle of poor versus rich, countryside versus city, old versus young, tradi- tion versus modernity.1 Landscape, heritage, ethnicity and gender set the stage for all these battles, intertwined in manifold ways with each other, rendering it far too complex to isolate one of these aspects. -
