‘Midsomer Murders’: 19 Stars Who Were In The ITV Show Before They Were Famous

From 'Broadchurch' actors to Hollywood heavyweights.

‘Midsomer Murders’ has hit a big milestone, with filming officially beginning on the show’s landmark 20th anniversary series.

And while not all of them have gone on to great things, a number of today’s TV mainstays, along with a handful of A-listers and film stars, once called Midsomer home.

Well… “home” might be a bit strong. Let’s just say they were there for a little while, trying not to get murdered.
