The characters take on names similar to the North American version but more often than not have backstories nearer to the European.
[4] John Boddy will rightfully inherit both Tudor Hall and his deceased uncle Sir Hugh Black's vast fortune on his upcoming thirtieth birthday.
For one reason or another, Hugh had put Boddy, Peacock, Scarlet, Mustard, Green and Plum on a generous monthly allowance for years.
Boddy, upon claiming Hugh's fortune, stands to end that immediately, with plans to cut them all off once the inheritance is official.
Each mystery is a different version of the main plot, Mr. Boddy's murder, unlike the original series.
