Cluedo
1990
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.

Candice Costello quickly becomes one of the show's most beautiful murder victims to date. But was she done in with a fire poker, a battery charger, a pair of scissors, a meat cleaver, an ice-pick or a poisoned fountain pen? And which of several plausible motives caused someone to snap?
After Mrs White inherits a small fortune, all the Grange's inhabitants start treating her rather differently. Then city slicker Terence Radcliffe persuades her to put all her money into a dud deal.Weapons: garden hoe, corkscrew, shotgun, sculpture, carving knife and decanter-stopper.
Journalist 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?
