- Quotes
[Jones is interviewing guests at the wedding]
DS Ben Jones: If I could start with you, Mr Colk-key-hown.
[stunned silence]
DS Ben Jones: Mr Colk-key-hown?
Randall Colquhoun: [patronisingly] It's pronounced "Co-hoon".
DS Ben Jones: You're the best man, I gather.
Randall Colquhoun: I *was*.
DS Ben Jones: A friend of the family, then?
Randall Colquhoun: No, sworn enemy! What do *you* think?
Harry Fitzroy: Look, we have family matters to discuss. Do we really have to do this now?
DS Ben Jones: Yes. And I'll also need to talk to the vicar who was just here.
Harry Fitzroy: Who? Uncle Marcus?
DS Ben Jones: But I'm happy to start with you - and Mr Colk-key-hown.

This sort of knock about stuff really makes me laugh. I can watch those haughty faces (that takes some quality acting) brushing off the police again and again with their laconic, sarcastic, pithy comments.
Perhaps the Fitzroys date back to the Norman era - who knows - their attitude seems to point to that. References to fighting the Welsh. I live on the English Welsh border and we tease each other. Jones' pronunciation of Colquhoun and the reaction to it are typical.
Against this background we have two weddings. The much lower key (lets say Anglo Saxon) wedding and the 'landed gentry' wedding. I don't actually care who the murderer is when the basic plot, production (bring back Brian True-May) and the acting are so great.
