Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: In "The Seer of the Sands", Carla's husband casually mentions that he was once married to a man. Carla understandably freaks out, but after the episode in question, it's never brought up again. The group was founded in 2004 by Marcella Puppini after she was inspired by the animated film The Triplets of Belleville (Les Triplettes de Belleville) (2003). In 2005, they were signed by UCJ (Universal Classics and Jazz). The Puppini Sisters' debut single, " Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy", was a cover of the hit single by The Andrews Sisters. The Puppini Sisters' second album, The Rise and Fall of Ruby Woo includes original compositions by Puppini, Stephanie O'Brien and Kate Mullins. The trio's albums often include contemporary songs reimagined in the Andrews Sisters style (for example, The Bangles' " Walk Like an Egyptian" on their Ruby Woo album).

The two relationships may have felt somewhat superfluous but the main offender here once again is the plot involving Jonathan’s boss. This time we follow Adam Klaus as he plans to invest in 3D porn and starts to date a star of that industry. Regardless of the question of comedic taste (my own take: it’s not great but its not as tasteless as The Seer of the Sands), it’s entirely extraneous to the episode’s main mystery plots, offering no connection at all to anything else that’s going on. Any time we cut away to it serves to really slow down the episode and given how disconnected it is, I feel the pacing of the piece would have benefited considerably from its excision.

Joey’s bedroom is immediately below the Nightmare Room and thus a trap door is ruled out. One thing Jonathan notices is that insects fall from the canopy every time he applies weight to the bed. Whilst there a bird hits the window and falls dead onto the roof below the window. Guest stars: Bob Monkhouse as Le Fley, Sophie Langham as Melissa, Christine Kavanagh as Lady Theresa Cutler and Peter Copley as Eric.

With Maddy gone to America on a book promotion tour, Jonathan teams up with Carla Borrego, a theatrical agent representing an escapologist who is being hired for Adam's show. They investigate how a well-known actress could have been shot through a window during the filming of her latest movie without the glass having been broken. The inquiry also turns up an old secret used to kill blasphemers in a castle owned by the film's producer. Narrowed It Down to the Guy I Recognize: Mostly averted, with the best-known guest stars more often playing victims ( Colin Baker, Bob Monkhouse, Nigel Planer), cops ( Rik Mayall), witnesses ( Peter Davison, Joanna Lumley) or comic relief ( Bill Bailey, John Bird). A few exceptions are Maureen Lipman in "The Tailor's Dummy", Celia Imrie in "Gorgons Wood" and Paul McGann in "The Judas Tree". Also, in the episode "Danse Macabre", what was the deal with the Creepy Child who was obsessed with rotating blades? You'd think it would trigger a "Eureka!" Moment, but...nope. What a way to welcome the wonderful Emma Smith into the fold!". Facebook.com. 24 November 2012 . Retrieved 26 November 2012. a b c Paul, Whitelaw (2 January 2009).

Guest stars: Paul McGann, Doreen Mantle, Ian McNeice and Natalie Walter. Jonathan Creek is called upon by his friend, investigator Joey Ross, to look into a series of mysterious and spooky events at a house called Green Lanterns. They concern a young girl called Emily – new housekeeper to the famous mystery writer Hugo Doré and his wife, Harriet. But Emily's new role comes with a house that has its own fair share of history and mystery... When Harriet is seen falling from a window, Emily is arrested on suspicion of murder, though she swears she is innocent. Using his powers of deduction and belief that nothing is as it seems, Creek races against time to uncover a number of intriguing clues which lead him to the unbelievable truth and the revealing of one of the greatest acts of illusion he has encountered yet. Jonathan must discover how a retired stage psychic apparently predicted a set of winning lottery numbers decades before the draw was made. He also has to deal with reports of a mysterious creature prowling the village and discover how the village parish newsletter contains uncanny details about people's lives.Wylie, Ian (18 December 2008).

This helps to fuel the romantic thread between him and Maddy. Jonathan's trademark duffle coat worn in the first series was actually Alan Davies' own coat that he wore to the auditions; it helped him win the role, as the writer and producers thought it suited the character. After the first series, Jonathan's coat was supplied by the wardrobe department. Davies kept the original at his home, and wore it again for the 2009 New Year special. [14]

When two young women take shelter in the attic from a raging thunderstorm, it's not long before the ominous 'presence' has claimed another victim. a b Brewis, Sian (2 January 2009). "TV review: Jonathan Creek". Leicester Mercury. Daily Mail and General Trust. Archived from the original on September 22, 2012 . Retrieved 2009-01-02. The best place to start is with its most striking problem – a series of disappearances, spread over a number of decades, of those staying in an attic room at a mansion named Metropolis. Yes, this is yet another house in Jonathan Creek with a frankly ridiculous name and here it doesn’t even tie into the story in any meaningful way other than to faintly suggest to us that the house was built in the thirties. The central mysteries of the episode focused on an attic room whose occupants disappeared without trace overnight and the kidnapped partner of a stage magician.

Cast

Since 1938, a number of people have disappeared from the attic of a Gothic mansion, owned originally by a spiritualist and now by his stage magician descendant. Seventy years later, when a young woman disappears in the same room, her friend Joey Ross, herself a paranormal investigator, calls on Jonathan for help. As the mystery deepens with the kidnapping of the magician's partner, Creek's powers of deduction seem to pale beside the raw intuition of his "collaborator". Meanwhile Adam takes an interest in the porn business, both financially and personally. Heawood, S (29 September 2007). "Meet the sisters of swing". Music. The Times . Retrieved 3 October 2007.
