What’s in this template
Midsomer Murders Bingo starts with 55 editable callouts, including “Barry Jackson”, “Caroline Graham”, “The church fete”, “The country-lane drive”, “The old family feud”, and “Barnaby's Land Rover”. Use these as a ready-made source list, then swap in details that fit your group.
How to use it
To play, read each paired callout, then let players mark the matching answer. Start with the provided callouts, add details that fit the group, and choose a clear win condition before the game begins.
Midsomer Murders Bingo turns midsomer murders into a flexible game for a group, classroom, party, watch-along, or independent activity. Its 55 editable callouts include Tom Barnaby, John Barnaby, Gavin Troy, Dan Scott, and Ben Jones. Because the bank contains more entries than one 5×5 card can display, generated cards can differ while staying focused on the same topic.
Shuffle the callout bank before the round and read one item at a time. Players mark the matching square, and the host can pause when a callout needs context or a quick explanation. Decide before starting whether one line, four corners, an X, or a blackout wins. A line keeps the activity moving; a blackout works better when the event itself is long enough to support it. The center FREE square is added automatically and is not part of the source bank.
The source notes add this guidance: Focused bank: 45 distinct callouts retained after editorial review. Play: Caller reads entries at random. Players mark matching text. Includes characters, performers, places and memorable details. Review the wording for your audience, replace any entry that does not fit the setting, and then generate the number of randomized cards you need. Saving the edited source list also makes it easy to reuse the template with a different group without rebuilding it from scratch.
