    Death of a Hollow Man is the second episode of the first series of the popular ITV crime drama Midsomer Murders that was first broadcast on 29th March 1998 and is the only episode so far to have been adapted by Caroline Graham herself, who was the author of the book of the same name. It starred John Nettles and Daniel Casey as DCI Barnaby and DS Tr...

    The body of Agnes Gray, a woman who loved only animals, is found in the river—but she did not drown. And then her cousin Esslyn Carmichael is tricked into killing himself on stage during an amateur production of the murder mystery Amadeus. DCI Barnaby has to get to grips with clues which include adultery, dramatic ambition, stolen religious art, an...

    In a dark room, Agnes Gray lights a candle and starts praying. Someone creeps up on her and smashes her head. Repeatedly. Her dead body is disposed of in a lake.

    At the Corn Exchange Building in Causton, Deirdre Tibbs parks her bike. There is a playbill outside promoting Amadeus by the Causton Players. Deirdre is the stage manager for the production. In the back David Smy and Colin Smy carry in scenery.

    At the Barnaby household, Joyce Barnaby hurries through her meal so she can get to rehearsal on time. Joyce says that the costumes have arrived. They are so beautiful. She doesn't know how Harold Winstanley affords them. DCI Tom Barnaby says maybe his import/export business is booming.

    At his home an arrogant, pretentious and elderly Harold hurries through his meal and blasts his wife, Doris Winstanley, for saying supper instead of dinner. Doris handles publicity for the production. Harold asks if she got the Amadeus publicity out. She has, but she hasn’t done the Ferndale Centre- there is no direct bus route. She asks her husband if he would mind taking them and he fobs her off. “When you see Peter Hall sticking up posters let me know. I shall be happy to join him.” He drives away.

    At the theater, David says hello to Deirdre who says she is running late. She couldn’t get her father settled. David offers to help. “Oh, thank you, David! I need that little table with the cakes on. And Salieri's wing chair,” says Deirdre.    Actors arrive for rehearsal and in back, Barnaby paints a background scene.

    At the bookstore,  Avery Phillips and Tim Young do inventory. Avery says, “I still think we should have done this on Sunday.” Tim replies, “Ah, but Harold wouldn't be in a fury because we've missed rehearsal.”
