Vera star Kenny Doughty has been tipped to replace Neil Dudgeon on Midsomer Murders if the actor ever decides to leave the ITV drama after announcing his exit earlier this month
Vera's Kenny Doughty is the top pick among bookies to step into Neil Dudgeon's shoes if he ever decides to leave Midsomer Murders. Despite Neil having no plans to exit the ITV drama, fans are concerned about a potential replacement.
Betway spokesperson Chad Yeomans said: "We make the ex-Vera star Kenny Doughty the favourite at 4/1 to replace Neil Dudgeon should he ever stand down as DCI John Barnaby.""Next in the betting comes Death in Paradise star Ralf Little at 5/1, who was hugely popular in his role as DI Neville Parker before his surprise departure from the show earlier this year," reports Chronicle Live.
On the Midsomer Murders fan circuit, discussions are heating up with suggestions like: "If Neil Dudgeon ever retired from the show, I think we should bring back Daniel Casey in his place as Chief Inspector Gavin Troy." Others are more relaxed about the shows future casting changes with remarks like: "I don't care as long as the show carries on," and some being outright enthusiastic, "Yes, I would love him back."
