Of the four series made, this one probably had the most different approach. It was the most relatively serious and least campy and had a complete different Mrs Peacock, with her being an English country gentlewoman instead of a vamp or glamor queen like the other Mrs Peacocks, plus she actually cared about her stepdaughter. It had a far nicer Miss Scarlett and Mrs White than usual as well and an adorable Reverend Green. It’s probably my favourite of the four and I kind of wish there were more than six episodes.
This series was really good. I wish they’d do a reboot, for American as well as British TV, there’s still lots of potential in this style of show, provided it continues to have the same formula of clever writers, believable actors playing the characters, and a player/audience participation in questioning suspects and solving the mystery.
Aden Harrison, I really don’t know. They should switch the actors out every now and then so we get to see them from their various different stereotypes. I mean, ones like Miss Scarlett and Professor Plum remain the same, but Mr. Green is a very fluid character and has been depicted as everything from reverend to playboy, from gangster to FBI operative. Mr. Green is a lot like Dr. Who in that he takes on many forms and pretty near anyone could play his role, as he seems to be the most mysterious of the suspects. Nobody knows for certain what he does or how he fits in with the others, he’s just “Mister.” But there’s one fault nearly all versions of Mister Green possess, and that is greed. Money motivates him to do things other people wouldn’t. I would recommend a great character actor to play him, someone who can do pretty near anything they throw at him, but not someone who is immediately recognizable, or with strikingly handsome features. He can be easily underestimated. He should be a master of disguise even. As to naming names, I haven’t a “clue.”
Aden Harrison, he’s a subtle sneak thief, that’s the best way I can put it. He gets away with “murder” all the time and people don’t know it, or if they suspect something, he’s too clever to leave anything tangible that would put him away. I think he’s really a gangster from America that came to England and took up religious work in order to escape the law or a rival gang’s hit list. My take on Green is that he’s a manipulative psychopath, but he’s not blatant or obvious like Miss Scarlett. He flies under most people’s radar because he is so charming or empathetic, when it’s really all a facade. Oh, and he uses all the money he gets for charity to sell guns in the black market, or something like that.
@@danielwilliamson6180 I actually agree with you mate, I was having a joke about the earlier commenter’s rather abrupt ‘only green’ comment. It obviously didn’t translate well, apologies.
..am in episode of cluedo for about 2 n half seconds am just going through episodes ..its the episode where there is sponsored run ..you see me run past in back ground with ancient nike blue shirt,tracking + big affro hahaha was about 13/14 ..I won't forget being there with skool friends as back ground extras ..🙂
They could had done an episode which one of the six characters commits murder out of paranoia and it turns out the victim didn't come to Arlington Hall for blackmail, money, settle a score with one of them, expose a dirty secret from their pasts or dodgy business deals and the victim is completely innocent. Miss Scarlett unexpectedly gets engaged to a man she's fallen in love with and she brings him to Arlington Hall to introduce him to Mrs. Peacock, Colonel Mustard, Professor Plum, Mrs. White and Reverend Green. All 5 of them don't seem to trust him and they think he could be a conman and he doesn't really love Miss Scarlett and is just using her. When the killer gets exposed, the killer reveals that he or she made a terrible mistake and when they commit the crime, they find the victim's diary and one of the entries in the diary proves that he wasn't a conman and had no intent on stealing their money and that he genuinely loved Miss Scarlett and wanted to make her happy and spend his life with her. Paranoia can drive people to commit murder.
Well here’s an idea: Mrs. White invites her nephew, Morris over. And the man who tries to buy the land, Mr. Higgins is driving everyone up the wall. Morris is found dead by Mrs. White saying “Morris, I’m sorry!” The killer confesses that he/she saw Morris in Mr. Higgins’ overcoat, thought it was Higgins, and killed Morris by accident. It happens all the time in mystery novels. Some times it’s on purpose by the person who the killer thought they were killing.
The solution to 1.6 is somewhat like that - the victim was actually no threat to the killer whatsoever. But yes, a theme that could be further explored.
@@lukacunningham342 An old friend of Col. Mustard who served with Col. Mustard in the military comes to Arlington Grove. But Col. Mustard doesn't remember him. And one of the characters discovers that he isn't who he and that he's the son of a soldier who served under Col. Mustard and was killed in war and the son blames Col. Mustard for his father's death and wants to take everything from Col. Mustard and one of them (Not Col. Mustard) murders him and does it to save Col. Mustard and also to prevent him from learning the truth.
