There's no chance of Lillian being in the web series. They don't always even have all the main characters in them. Lillian is probably in London anyway tbh.

Anyone take a look at the beginning of the web series yet? It's a matter of national security...
It's also gonna be more fun for the Canadian folks, as it's a mixture of online episodes and actual live action in select locations around Canada. You Torontons and near-Torontons will want to clear your schedule for this Saturday, if possible.

Everyone else can still watch the episodes and read/see the evidence. Though I hope it isn't just going to be George and Meyers that appears in it.
I love George, but the show is Murdoch Mysteries, not Crabtree Mysteries. It's feeling forced the way they're suddenly trying to shove George into the centre of things. He has been a supporting character for all these seasons for a reason, he's not lead material.
It appears the timeline of The Infernal Device is set between 8x17 and 8x18. So the guy with the cigar, we saw watching George at the end of 8x17, was connected to this storyline.

There was a guy with a cigar watching George in 8x17? Somehow I missed that! Or is that the person with the blue sleeve?
Cigar does usually signal Meyers...and there are no meaningless scenes, so that would put possble new spins on George's current situation.
I feel the same way about the shift in George's character- mainly because I feel William's character needs to be offset by George. It does seem like the writers were attempting to replace Jilliam with Gedna on MURDOCH Mysteries. Utter fail. But Jonny did such a great job that I'm glad he got this opportunity to show what he can do. And this gave William a juicy moment as well.

This is just a fun, interstitial thing, and I welcome the chance to "work" with Crabtree. And anything that gives me more Myers is all right in my book. *grin*

The person with the blue sleeve does have smoke drifting by also, but we don't see what produces it. It could be a cigarette or a cigar. I still think that person is Edna's husband - that's the only thing that really explains his actions toward her and Simon in the next episode. I really doubt she'd have married him if he'd been that abusive before.

I think the blue sleeve belongs to Emily......it matches the coat her was wearing when she confronted George about knowing the body was Sgt Brooks.........the cigar in the web series does belong to Meyers......

I really doubt she'd have married him if he'd been that abusive before. Yes Edna's original marriage to him is making no sense to me either. She's a very practical and smart woman as well as a kind-hearted one. Either this is a plot/character loophole or something strange is going on there that the writers will have to explain. My money is on some third parties being involved somehow, and I'm thinking the husband never left the country: he could be a gangster, a con artist, or a spy. He could have even been in jail for a while under another name. In any case, I think he would turn on Edna for doing something or not doing something that he perceives as putting all of them in danger...i.e. she was hanging out with a *cop*, not just another man.

And anything that gives me more Myers is all right in my book. *grin* It doesn't have to be Murdoch all the time, but this year there was way too much scatter and siphoning off to subplots with supporting characters. It's hard to lay the blame in any one direction since we love them all (I definitely support Gedna), but this scattering definitely detracted from the richness of the mysteries. You could really feel the feel reduced texture - it was Murdoch Lite. And the shippers didn't get their marriage validation on top of that. Ouch! Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing what changes are made to give MM a little more depth in Season 9! Because I've been busy all week, I haven't been able to rewatch the finale yet, but I'm really looking forward to sitting down with my absinthe and crumpets this time! Both Jonny and YB really gave it up as actors and that's rewatch-worthy!

Like I said, I love George, but I don't watch the show for him as the centre of things. Which is something the show has been doing lately, and it doesn't feel right.

Thanks for keeping us posted. I haven't even started yet. Have to re-install chrome, darn it. I don't understand the "Periscope" thing. How does that work? I think William's absence has to do with the "live" aspect. This is taking place while YB has some time off. He may show up later in the series. I just realized lovemonday's "prediction" about the dye-tainted clothes never came about. Since the invention of mauve did ultimately link to the invention of mustard gas, I'm thinking her psychic prediction related to the web series rather than the TV show...?
