IT LURES thousands of visitors to the county — and now a village fete will pay tribute to the hit TV detective series Midsomer Murders.

Brightwell Baldwin’s annual event tomorrow will take its lead from the long-running ITV drama, which is filmed across south Oxfordshire.

There will be a gruesome crime scene, with prizes for finding the murder weapon, a Bouncy Young Offenders Institute, and tea and cakes in the interrogation area.

The fete kicks off on the village green at 2pm.
