Picspam: Peter Davison & Nicola Walker in Jonathan Creek (c1998)

(with unexpected naked!Ancelyn, as I promised Clocket).

Naturally, possible spoilers for the S2 episodes Danse Macabre and Mother Redcap under the cut (although I have done my very best not to reveal any of the how/whodunnit aspect, I promise!):



Danse Macabre

Photobucket
Maddy opens the door to find Peter Davison there, dressed as a vicar. As you do...

Photobucket
Vicar!Peter is troubled by a Hallowe'en murder.

Photobucket
(It's a bit early for finding you have Peter Davison dressed as a vicar in your house.)

Photobucket
This is not what vicars like to read.

Photobucket
Also, Peter has further problems: he is married to Mrs Brittas (Pippa Haywood), "A sweet and sensitive soul," he starts to claim before Maddy rudely interupts with the liquidiser.

Photobucket
Maddy is convinced there is something worth investigating here.

Photobucket
Jonathan is not: "Not the old vanishing skeleton on Hallowe'en trick. Are you sure he's a real vicar? He's probably wearing rubber underwear or something."

Photobucket
Vicar!Peter can probably hear this.

Photobucket
Photobucket
Maddy: "I'm going to have a shower. If you fancy a nibble while I'm in there, help yourself..."


Photobucket
The usual suspects.

Photobucket
"I find I seem to have lost my spiritual equanimity..."


Photobucket
Maddy has found the vital clue to solve the why of the mystery, and now has just solved Adam Klaus's latest difficulty, and insulted him at the same time. She is smirking at Jonathan, having just pwned the world. Fair enough.



Mother Redcap

Photobucket
Nicola plays a WPC who is the first on the scene to an impossible murder in a locked room under police guard.. (Well, this is Jonathan Creek.)

Photobucket
Meanwhile, Maddy is on the phone to an estate agent called Jason Tippett Ancelyn with a creepy story & agrees to meet him. (Jonathan can't believe how dumb that is: "He could be some weirdo.")

Photobucket
Obviously, this is not the case...

Photobucket
Photobucket
Maddy meets Ancelyn Jason (Marcus Gilbert): "IThere wouldn't be any chance of a fork, would there?"

Meanwhile, Jonathan takes a shine to WPC Nicola:
Photobucket
Photobucket
(She likes him, too.)

Photobucket
... Until Maddy arrives, claims she's Jonathan's wife and drags him off home.

Still, they get a date - Nicola at Jonathan's windmill:
Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket

Photobucket
But, oh dear, Jonathan does NOT like the way she sticks her tongue out when she eats.

Photobucket
Meanwhile Maddy discover's Ancelyn Jason's hobby...

Photobucket
"Let's just chalk it up as nil-all on the score card and move on..."

Photobucket
Maddy explores the deserted pub, and Jonathan works out an old 1940's booby trap a bit too well...

...Meaning he has to quickly dive in to save Maddy becoming the first victim in about 50 years:
Photobucket
Photobucket
"I nearly killed you..."

Photobucket
"Is it just me, or is that an unconvincing dead rat?"

Photobucket
(Not that I know what a toasted dead rat should look like, but somehow... :-D)

(And, sorry, but Jonathan showing any sort of concern for Maddy, or even vice versa, is rare enough to warrant part of this picspam.)

I was so busy being confounded by Vicar!Peter that I completely forgot about unexpected naked!Anceyln until he showed up very... unexpectly... and naked...

xD
