Great British Murder Mystery

Murder on a train
In 1933, somewhere near the Austrian border, the banging and clanging aboard the Simpleton-Orient Express fell silent as the “wrong type of leaves” on the track forced the mighty engine to grind to a halt. The hysterical train guard shrieked: “There’s been a murder!” And Monsieur Parrot assembled the suspects to try and solve the puzzle in the victim’s cabin: shards of glass from a lightshade, a scrawled note, a single gunshot wound….
The Women
  • Nurse Elektra Cushen, a manically overworked carer with bright lipstick and flashbacks to her past career
  • Miss Crimson, sophisticated secret agent with a penchant for secretly recording conversations
  • Sister Soprano, a meek nun, a sister of mercy who uses her bible to swat flies
  • Indy Temple, tough-talking tomb raider, terrified of snakes and on an obsessional treasure hunt
  • The Duchess of Downton, an imposing and opinionated heiress, dripping in jewellery and furs
The Men
  • Illusionist Houdunni, a mesmerising showman on his way home to Budapest to launch his new show
  • Professor Albert Weinstein, a scatterbrained genius who secretly wanted to be a rock star
  • Gerard the Butler, an impeccably well-groomed servant, ready to polish silverware at a moment’s notice
  • John Doe, the deceased, a man with secrets and connections to all the guests….
