== In literature and television == The [[mystery novel]] ''[[The Nine Tailors]]'' by [[Dorothy L. Sayers]] (1934) contains a great deal of information on change-ringing. Her fictional [[detective]], [[Lord Peter Wimsey]], demonstrates his skill at ringing, and the solution to the central puzzle of the book rests in part upon his knowledge of the patterns of change ringing. [[Connie Willis]], who frequently [[To Say Nothing of the Dog#The mystery novel|references]] Sayers in ''[[To Say Nothing of the Dog]]'' (1997), features bell ringers in her earlier novel ''[[Doomsday Book (novel)|Doomsday Book]]'' (1992); a group of American women led by a Mrs. Taylor frequently appears practising for or ringing both handbells and changes. The British television series ''[[Midsomer Murders]]'' aired an episode in the fifth season on a series of murders within a bell-ringing team, in "[[Ring Out Your Dead]]". In the science-fiction novel ''[[Anathem]]'' by [[Neal Stephenson]] (2008) changes are rung in a cloistered monastery for mathematicians to signal different ceremonies.
