<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">At Christmas my wife and I always seem to watch a Midsomer Murders episode called 'The Ghost Of Christmas Past' which has Margery Mason playing the part of Lydia Villiers. Sadly she gets bumped off before too long but
it is great seeing her in an episode with John Nettles again. He plays the part of DCI Tom Barnaby. Although I didn't rate his part very highly in AFAW he seems to be the actor who is most frequently on our screens out of the original cast.</p>

<div style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif; font-size:11pt">Hi Vibeke,<br>
I don't know if you saw one of my earlier Emails about Margery Mason.<br>
<br>
The first time I saw her was in the 1971 film "Made" (now out on a Network DVD). Her character in that was very similar to Celia in AFAW.<br>
<br>
It's a very depressing film which starts miserably and gets worse with no happy ending, though the songs Roy Harper composed for the film were good.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>

<p class="x_MsoNormal">Whar did Margery Mason do before and after AFAW?<br>
I can recommend Margery Mason's memoirs: Peaks And Troughs. Luckily she seems to have been a very different person from Celia :-) Both in character and politics. I certainly love the story about how she and Patrck Througton was almost arrested because they
had drugs in the car. I'm sure it would never have happened to Celia ane Harry.<br>

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Saw this episode for the first time this morning. Pure quality television in every way. The black and white flashback scenes including the reprise from, "The Breach of
the Dyke" and what follows was especially effective.<br>
<br>
The picture quality was first class too, looking as if it was recorded yesterday, not 47 years ago. The 2" Quad format was capable of brilliant quality pictures.<br>
<br>
Lesley Nunnerly especially gave a stunning performance. Nice to see Gwyn back too though sometimes I think he should keep Celia company for his lack of tact. I'm sure they'd get on very well!<br>
<br>
The live like quality revealed a couple of sightings of the microphone boom during the bedroom scenes. Not uncommon when viewing vintage programmes on a modern flat screen set (adjusted to the correct 4:3 aspect ratio) as when the programme was made sets had
more curvy screens so such sightings wouldn't have been possible. <br>
<br>
In all, another great episode.<br>
