Agatha Raisin is a British comedy-drama based on the novels of M.C. Beaton. It began with a pilot titled Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death in 2014, and was followed with an eight-part series that first aired in 2016.Agatha Raisin, PR whizz, gives up her successful life in London, landing with a bang in the quiet village of Carsely with hopes of beginning a new dream life. Bored, lonely and used to getting her way, Agatha finds that life in the Cotswolds isn't quite the picture-perfect existence she imagined... and when her high-flying city attitude is met with puzzlement and suspicion from country locals, Agatha enlists the few allies she can find. Among them are DC Bill Wong, a lovelorn local policeman; Gemma Simpson, her suffer-no-fools cleaning lady; and Roy Silver, a faithful former assistant from London. But with her unique brand of feisty truth-telling finding little favour, it seems the community is not quite ready for the acerbic Agatha.In season 2, Sarah, The Vicar's wife, joins Agatha's coterie of amateur sleuths. | |

Tap on the Head | |
| Agatha Raisin / int_b1a7cd14 | comment |
Tap on the Head: Agatha is felled by a blow to the head while snooping in "Agatha Raisin and The Day the Floods Came". Agatha is again knocked out by the killer on "Agatha Raisin and the Curious Curate." James is knocked out by one blow to the head in "Agatha Raisin and the Haunted House". James is knocked out so deeply by a blow to the head but the killer in "Agatha Raisin and the Murderous Marriage", is fully unconscious when the killer starts to bury him alive. Bill is not immune. In "Agatha Raisin and Love from Hell", Bill is hit with a hammer by the killer. Somehow he is only knocked unconscious and not killed. Happens to Bill again in the pre-Season Four Christmas special "Kissing Christmas Goodbye" when the killer takes out Bill to get to Agatha. | |

Prophecy Twist | |
| Agatha Raisin / int_bb5126ec | comment |
Prophecy Twist: In "Agatha Raisin and the Witch of Wyckhadden", one murder suspect wants to make a legal claim as heiress of a castle. A prophecy predicts that a curse on the family line will be broken when a "raven" takes power; and the suspect, who has dark hair, believes this refers to her. It's actually the castle's maid, who's working there to learn the business and prepare to inherit from her father. She has naturally black hair that's not obvious since it's dyed blue.) | |

Not So Great Escape | |
| Agatha Raisin / int_c4d30144 | comment |
Not So Great Escape: "Agatha Raisin and the Wizard of Evesham" has a scene that starts like this. Agatha is searching Johnny's house for evidence when the real killer arrives. Agatha starts scuttling around the house on her hands and knees, hiding behind furniture and ducking in and out of rooms in an effort not to be seen. However, it turns serious when the killer decides to burn the house down to destroy any evidence, and Agatha finds herself trapped in a storeroom. | |

| Agatha Raisin / int_cb70651c | comment |
Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: "Agatha Raisin and the Witch of Wyckhadden" has a lot of this: the "witch's" hair tonic does work, an ancient prophecy about an inheritance turns out to prove true, and an attempt to speak to a murder victim via a seance is implied to have been successful. | |

Never Suicide: In "Agatha Raisin and Hell's Bells", everyone is prepared to write off the death of the Victim of the Week as suicide; except Agatha, who keeps pointing out the all of the discrepancies in this theory. Naturally, Agatha is proved right. | |

Alone with the Psycho | |
| Agatha Raisin / int_dfe687c9 | comment |
Alone with the Psycho: This happens to Agatha quite a few times: In the pilot she makes the mistake of drinking tea with the murderer and is dosed with horse tranquilliser. In "The Wellspring of Death" she works out the solution a minute too late and is trapped in her house with the murderer who then tries to kill her. She is saved by James and Bill. In "The Curious Curate" this happens to Agatha twice! First, she's trapped in the house with the seeming murderer who tried to kill her. Agatha fights back bravely. Later in her home, she realised the murderer was covering for another and was almost strangled to death by the real killer. In "The Wizard of Evesham" she's knocked out and then tied up with the killer who has a total psychotic break. In the pre-Season Four Christmas special "Kissing Christmas Goodbye" the killer confronts Agatha alone in her apartment. Agatha has to use the Christmas turkey (still frozen), a large candy cane and a snow globe to fight. The killer has a knife. | |

Drives Like Crazy | |
| Agatha Raisin / int_f96f188c | comment |
Drives Like Crazy: A subplot in "Agatha Raisin and the Potted Gardener" involves joyriders fanging around the village at night; doing burnouts and generally terrorizing the village. Ultimately the joyriders are revealed as a couple in their 80s or 90s who always fancied being speed demons and decided it was never too late to live their dream. In episode one Agatha drives like crazy to stop a murder and hits a tree. In episode one of season two she is driving fast when she realises her brakes have been cut, and she hits another tree. In season four's Christmas special "Kissing Christmas Goodbye" Toni can't drive but still speeds around in Agatha's car hitting multiple things throughout the episode. | |
