Whodunnit? (UK)	comment	Whodunnit? was a British television game show that ran from 1972 to 1978. It was hosted by Shaw Taylor in the pilot episode, then by Edward Woodward in the first season, and Jon Pertwee from 1973 to 1978.Each week it featured a short murder-mystery drama enacted in front of a panel of celebrity guests who then had to establish who the murderer was. Anouska Hempel and Patrick Mower became permanent panellists from series 3 onwards, with two guest celebrities each episode.note Not coincidentally, Hempel and Mower were both appearing in TV crime dramas at the time they became Whodunnit? regulars, Hempel on the short-lived Zodiac and Mower on the longer-running Special Branch. In series 5, Liza Goddard replaced Anouska Hempel as a permanent panellist. The panel members could interview the remaining characters, with the only clue being that only the murderer could lie. Each panellist could also request to see a short replay of one section of the initial drama, which would often include events as they occurred and flashbacks as seen and narrated by individual suspects. (The video technology used at the time meant that it usually took a few minutes to set up each replay.)It was created and written by comic actor Lance Percival and writer Jeremy Lloyd (co-creator of Are You Being Served?, 'Allo 'Allo! and so on) so there was a fair amount of comedy leavening the murders.An American adaptation briefly ran on NBC in 1979, hosted by Ed McMahon.

Whodunnit? (UK) / int_103e0141	type	Dying Clue
Whodunnit? (UK) / int_103e0141	comment	Dying Clue: In "Evidence of Death", the Victim of the Week is poisoned with a nerve agent. With his voice paralysed and 20 seconds to live, he removes his signet ring and stuffs it into a matchbox as a cryptic clue to his killer's identity. In "Too Many Cooks", the Victim of the Week attempts to scratch the killer's name into a block of ice after he has been Locked in a Freezer. Unfortunately, he only gets as far as the first letter—'B'—which is not helpful as every suspect's name starts with B (Braunsky, Brets, Brooks, Brent, Bargaux, Benito - and Blade, the investigating MI5 agent). Though not entirely - the head chef has a 'B' initialled surname, where the dead chef would have used his first name as they worked together and knew each other well. In fact, the killer was someone who the chef knew only by their surname.

In "Beware Wet Paint!", one of the two cameramen says "only one man hated [the victim] enough to put a dagger in him", but the head of security interrogating them had never mentioned the murder weapon was a dagger. Only he and the floor manager saw the body in full - thus indicating said cameraman was involved in the murder.

Being a Fair-Play Whodunnit, eagle-eyed viewers would have noticed he stabbed the box at the opposite end to the one the victim took the cigar from, so even if the blade was poisoned, the cigar he smoked wasn't.

Whodunnit? (UK) / int_8797239c	comment	Bait-and-Switch: There were several episodes in which The Reveal of whodunnit involved one or more characters moving as if to stand up, or even actually standing up, only to either be told to sit down again by the true culprit or gesture to the true culprit to stand up. Just to give a few examples: In "A Piece of Cake", when Jon Pertwee tells the real whodunnit to make themselves known, James begins to stand up, but is told to sit down again by Eric, who is revealed to be the real murderer. In "Too Many Cooks", when Jon Pertwee asks the murderer (or murderers) to reveal themselves, Clarence Brooks and Bergio Benito both stand up... and gesture to Helen Brent, who is sitting between them and is the real murderer, to stand up. In "Village Fate", one of the clues that the panel latch onto is the behaviour of a black handkerchief with white spots, as two suspects are seen wearing one. When Jon Pertwee cues the reveal, Mr Robinson, owner of one of the handkerchiefs, stands up... and says "I believe this is yours!" as he hands his handkerchief to the real murderer, Mr Fielding. In "Beware Wet Paint!", everyone including the investigator stands up, to the audible surprise of regular Anouska Hempel, only for the innocent parties to sit down a few moments later. In "Which Eye Jack", Patrick Mower's guess is that Captain Ginger and Daisy the barmaid were in collusion with each other. When Jon Pertwee cues the reveal, Captain Ginger stands up... and gestures to Daisy the barmaid to stand up before sitting down again.

For example, in "The Art of Theft", Kingsley Amis asks art experts Pierre Legrand and Royce Turner if Francesco Guardi is considered a member of the Tuscan or Umbrian school. As Conrad Phillips and Sydney Bromley, the actors playing Legrand and Turner, visibly have no idea who Guardi was, they claim that he absorbed elements of both; Amis then says the correct answer is neither (he was from the Venetian school) and lists this among his reasons for suspecting Legrand of being the thief. Which he is, but not for the reasons Amis claims.

(UK) / int_bda72a5e	comment	Clueless Detective: In "The Rajah's Ruby", the primary investigator is PC Ferrit (John Savident), who stumbles and stammers his way through the investigation, to the point that the suspects end up getting more information out of each other than he gets out of them. That said, he claims to have solved the mystery by the end of the film, so he may be affecting Obfuscating Stupidity to get the suspects to let their guards down. In "Adieu Monsieur Chips", the primary investigator is the bungling head of security for the Monte Carlo casino who has more than a touch of Inspector Clouseau about him. Host Jon Pertwee notes that he is still clueless about the killer's identity even after it has been revealed. As he is played by Lance Percival, co-creator of the series and co-writer of the episode, this is also a Creator Cameo.

The respective agents spend the early part of the episode arguing over who has the real authority to conduct the investigation; Blade of MI5 points out that the murder occurred on British soil, Brets of the CIA claims that his authority came from the American government directly, and Bargaux of the SDECE reveals that the visiting foreign dignitary personally asked him to investigate the planned assassination. Each of them conducts different interrogations until Blade is able to establish that the murder taking place on British soil gives him priority to investigate.

Later in the same episode, in response to Patrick Mower's request for one final question, Jon Pertwee asks Frank Thornton, here playing inspector Gerald Harvey, "are you free, Mr Harvey?", in reference to his catchphrase as Captain Peacock in Are You Being Served?. In "Portrait in Black", Police Constable Piper is asked the name of his superior officer, and he gives the name Inspector Hound. (Pertwee then makes a joke about him being 'of the Baskervilles'.)

Whodunnit? (UK) / int_cdb1c635	comment	Side Bet: At the start of "All Part of the Service", Inspector Godfrey and Sergeant Coop have a bet about how long they'll be at the crime scene. Godfrey wagers they'll be in and out in ten minutes, but admits he'll have to pay up when it becomes apparent they're dealing with a murder. In "The Rajah's Ruby", compulsive gambler Gay Fortescue gives the seemingly incompetent PC Ferrit 20 to 1 odds on a five shilling bet that he can't identify the thief of the title object, and double or nothing if he can also reveal where the jewel ended up. At the end of the film, PC Ferrit declares that he's ready to collect, but isn't quite sure of the result of multiplying five shillings by 40.note As Jon Pertwee reveals - with the aid of a 1970s pocket calculator - the answer is Â£10 (even after decimalisation). Not much in 1977, when the episode was filmed, but a hefty sum in 1925, when it was set!

Whodunnit? (UK) / int_dbca2c99	comment	Red Herring: The presenters always reminded viewers that some "clues" were planted in the episode specifically to mislead. Just to give a few examples: In "Evidence of Death", Simon Victor leaves the room in which he is practising fencing with Prof. Striker to swap fencing jackets. When he returns, his face hidden behind a mask, he conspicuously has no dialogue for the rest of the scene and seems to have become a much better fencer, creating the impression that it's someone pretending to be Simon while the real Simon is committing the murder. However, the apparent change is perfectly innocent and has nothing to do with the murder. In "Death at the Top", the Victim of the Week is poisoned, and as the panel are about to interrogate the suspects, Jon Pertwee tells the audience that the possible methods of delivery include cigarettes, the victim's heart medication, the wristband of the victim's watch, a hypodermic needle in a briefcase, and a pen. One suspect smoked one of the cigarettes, another both tasted the heart medication and was wearing the watch until seconds before the victim put it on, and the briefcase is too solid for the hypodermic needle to protrude through it, leaving the pen as the source of the poison. In "The Rajah's Ruby", Stage Magician the Great Maestro appears to accidentally-on-purpose drop the ruby and then, with a bit of sleight of hand, replace it with a fake while he slips the real ruby into his jacket pocket; meanwhile, his fellow music hall performer Jillian Hampshire appears to use her compact to watch the Maharajah select the new combination for the safe in which he is storing the ruby. They are among the moments the panel ask to see again, but they only look suspicious; neither one has anything to do with the solution.

Whodunnit? (UK) / int_dcb40127	comment	The Killer Was Left-Handed: The killer being left-handed is an important clue in "Pop Goes the Weasel". In an ironic twist, several of the panellists picked up the fact that the killer must be left-handed, but then completely failed to identify which characters were left-handed, resulting in three of them naming a completely innocent right-handed suspect as the murderer, because they all thought he was left-handed, except one who chose them despite knowing they were right-handed, to the bafflement of host Jon Pertwee. In "Final Verdict", Miss Rhodes is seen writing left-handed in a Flashback to the jury room twenty years earlier, but is holding a cigarette right-handed in the "present day" scenes. This is an important clue to the Kill and Replace ploy used by the murderer and his sister and accomplice, who is posing as Miss Rhodes, though when asked about this apparent change by panellist Honor Blackman, "Miss Rhodes" claims that she suffered a serious fracture of her left arm and had to learn to write with her other hand.
