Christmas Theme BBC Types of Mysteries…

Walter Wrote:
I love BBC mysteries and I am trying to find shows with a Christmas Theme. I already watched Hercule Poirot's Christmas and loved it. I am looking for more, any BBC mystery with a Christmas theme would be welcome this season. Any suggestions would be great. Thank you Walter

I Responded:
Let me think about this a little longer, Walter. Right off the top of my head…. Sherlock Holmes had the Blue Carbuncle
Also, I have a vague recollection of one of the Frost shows as being Christmas-themed…. I just can't remember which one. I know that the first novel in the series takes place during Christmas (R. D. Wingfield's wonderful Frost at Christmas… I think that it might by Line of Fire, which is a two part episode.)

I sort of remember Gladys Mitchell's Mrs. Bradley show as having a Christmas special, but I can't remember which one (or even if I am right about that.)

I will keep thinking about it… and will probably write a blog asking for other people to help.

Do any of you have possible suggestions?
