Season 4 • Episode 6
LatestJournalist Daniel Peacock arrives at the Grange to write a book about a former royal resident, and several people still around feel threatened and are determined to stop him... so Daniel's death comes as no surprise. But who killed him, and was it with a dagger, a cheese-wire, a snooker triangle, a broken glass, a kitchen knife or a microphone?
Cluedo was a UK television game show based on the board game of the same name. Each week, a reenactment of the murder at the stately home Arlington Grange of a visiting guest was played and, through a combination of interrogating the suspects and deduction, celebrity guests had to discover who committed the murder, which of six weapons and in which room it was committed, whilst viewers were invited to play along at home.
Acting
Leslie Grantham's Colonel Mustard steals every scene.
Costume
Jerry Hall's Miss Scarlett gowns are pure camp perfection.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Richard Madeley later admitted he had no idea who committed each murder until filming ended—he was genuinely playing along.
This predated the 1995 film by five years, proving the board game's camp potential long before Tim Curry's iconic butler.
