It's an okay, light-hearted, series, but there are so mny of these amateur detectives "help" (i.e they solve the crimes)

>
Yeap. "Father Brown" and "Sister Boniface Mysteries" for starters!!
>
Hmm!! Are these two shows just an effort to portray the Roman Catholic
Church as a bunch of busy-bodies?? Oh!! No!! Wait! "Grantchester" is a
CoE based Cop-show!!

 Then there's:
  - The Madame Blanc Mysteries

Pommies moving on to France Riviera in Retirement.

  - The Marlow Murder Club

??

  - Queens of Mystery

??

  - The Good Ship Murder

??

  - Moonflower Murders

??

  - Agatha Raisin

Like it.

  - Ludwig

Seen a couple .. but missed the first Ep so don't know the "back-story".

and the professional / semi-professional private detectives helping police:
  - Harry Wild

Good

  - Whitstable Pearl

Good

  - Professor T

??

  - Shakespeare & Hathaway

Good.

 Plus of course all the proper police ones.

I may have mentioned before that I do a bit of Volunteering at the local Salvation Army thrift Shop .... to which someone donated 59 of the 68 old "Midsomer Murders" TV series DVDs
(Bugger!! I original spelt that 'Midsommer' but the went to IMDB and they have it as "Midsomer" so I changed it .... then hit 'Send' and my Spell-checker offered "Midsommer" .... so I don't know!!! ;-) )
I might have brought them ..... cept I've seen them over and over and ...

And those are just off the top of my head. There are plenty more, even not counting non-UK ones.

Yeap, like "Homicide - Life on the Streets" which is being repeated, three or four Eps in a row, of a Thursday evening.
I haven't seen "Hill Street Blues" this century, I think, but wouldn't mind if it got repeated!!

She has plaued *lots* of roles and is married to Sanjeev Bhaskar (the
male detective in the "Unforgotten" series

>
Good Series .... and he plays his part very well .... thinking HE should
be the Boss of the squad .... but "The System" keeps posting in other DCI's!!

 He did get promoted from Detective Sergeant to Detective Inspector at some point. He didn't want to be the boss - he was offered another promotion after DCI Cassie Stuart died, but he turned it down because he didn't think he was in the right frame of mind after her death.

.... and, somewhere along the line, he's seperated from his T.V. wife .... and is now trying to set himself up with a Nurse.
