also, what would your Cludeo "dream team" be if you could mix and match cast members from each series?

makes him look a bit like Phil Spector, which I guess is appropriate

Christmas Special or Series 3 for me. Series 4 is just trying too hard.

The dream team:

Mrs Peacock - Stephanie Beacham
Col Mustard - Michael Jayston
Rev Green - Richard Wilson (was ideal for the role)
Prof Plum - Tom Baker (because it's Tom Baker)
Miss Scarlet - Lysette Anthony (not a great selection here)
Mrs White - Joan Sims

this show casting a guy who was known to have actually murdered someone irl, and then getting Richard Madley to present it is so funny

Dream team, with a heavy Season 1 bias:

Col Mustard - Michael Jayston (RIP)
Mrs Peacock - Stephanie Beacham
Rev Green - Richard Wilson
Miss Scarlett - Tracy Louise Ward (but would prefer Cay Helmich from the German version)
Prof Plum - Ian Lavender (RIP)
Mrs White - June Whitfield

Hey Brits, why is the game called Cluedo (is that even a word?) and not Clue?

― Hideous Lump, Friday, 9 February 2024 08:18 (five months ago) link

it's a pun on another game called Ludo

Why did Series 1 win this? It's the least interesting cast by far.

In the mid 90s I competed against Steve on ITV's Cluedo.
He was partnered by Nerys Hughes...I was joined by Bella Emberg.
Steve was a very gracious loser,great fun and clearly a winner in life.
RIP. https://t.co/dd4CBjIAK3
