Murder Most Horrid was a BBC black comedy anthology series starring comedian Dawn French. It ran for four series runs, in 1991, 1994, 1996 and 1999.
Each episode of Murder Most Horrid tells a different story. Dawn French plays a new character, but one thing all the stories have in common is murder, and Dawn is always involved. Dawn's character either commits the crime, or in some unfortunately tragic but nevertheless still hilarious circumstances, she gets killed herself.
"The Case of the Missing". A traffic WPC is suddenly put in charge of a seemingly straight forward murder case, which gradually becomes more complex and mysterious.
"The Girl from Ipanema". When housekeeper Maria arrives at the house of MP Howling and his wife Lydia, she doesn't quite find things the way she expected. But one day, Maria witnesses a violent attack on Lydia by her husband and things start to take a turn for the better.
"He Died a Death". Backstage at a London theatre, rivalry turns into suspicion, when one of the cast is murdered during a performance.
"Determined Woman". Scientist Rita Proops brings her equipment home to start working on the ultimate invention - the time machine. But this causes friction at home with disastrous results.
"Murder at Tea Time". Bunty is a successful children's television presenter, an expert in sticky-back plastic and a favourite with the young viewers of 'Write Away.' However, when her younger co-presenter is asked to pose for a wax modelling session at Madame Tussauds, jealousy arises off camera - and Bunty decides to put her young rival in his place!
"Mrs Hat and Mrs Red". Mrs Hat is shocked when she bumps into her doppelganger, and ends up following her home. She finds herself literally stepping into her shoes and taking over her luxurious lifestyle.
