3. The Reconstituted Corpse

Did Zola Zbzewski kill her ex-lover, surgeon David Curchin? No, apparently, and she had an iron-clad alibi.

And who then killed Zola and dumped her body in the second hand wardrobe Maddie’s just bought?

A classic Creek episode in which Maddie’s love life comes firmly into focus and Jonathan delights in how much of a buffoon her blind date is.

In this edition of the pod we analyse the story before digging up some location information, tracking down some frankly bewildering real-world connections to details in the show, and finding out what was happening on the day the episode aired.

The Reconstituted Corpse was the third episode of Jonathan Creek, airing on 24th May 1997.

Written by David Renwick and directed by Marcus Mortimer, guest stars included Kika Mirylees, Philip McGough, Rebecca Johnson, Ron Berglas and the absolutely exceptional Nigel Planer.
