THE producer of Midsomer Murders who sparked a race row will step down from the show at the end of the current series.
Production company All3Media launched an internal investigation after the publication of Brian True-May’s comments that part of the show’s appeal was an absence of ethnic minorities.
A statement on its website said: “Brian True-May has been reinstated as the producer of Midsomer Murders.
“Brian apologises if his remarks gave unintended offence to any viewers.”
An ITV spokesman said: “We welcome the apology and understand he will step down from his role on Midsomer Murders at the end of the current production run.”
