Allo Allo Themed Murder Mystery - £65.00 Departs Cheddleton at 19:00

Back after an absence of a four years, Murder Mystery nights have returned. Help solve the mysteries as you dine and travel along the Churnet Valley Railway.

It is wartime and you are all guests at Café René where efforts to smuggle out the British airmen are not going well as the new garrison commander General von Blumerz is making some sweeping changes that are not proving unpopular with the Resistance.

To add to their troubles, there is a serious case of murder to be solved and they are all in it up to their knockwursts!

How long can René keep the contents of his sausage a secret? How long can Yvette keep her hands off him? How long can you keep the cheese in your ears to protect you from Madam Edith’s singing? Answer these questions and more as you join us for a load of fun and frolics in occupied France.

Why not come dressed as your favourite character from the show?
