Loved Morse but not Lewis, love Frost, Foyles war, New Tricks, Scott & Bailey, and the Australian series Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, for the art deco fashion and scenery as much as the stories. I have enjoyed Lilyhammer too, though the crime is secondary to the stories. I enjoy watching Scandinavian crimmies for the language - I love trying to learn Danish or Norwegian from the sub titles - quite a lot of my Yorkshire dialect in there.
I miss Dalziel and Pascoe too - my lads used to laugh their heads off, as kids, when Dalziel got talking - so much like their Dad in voice if not attitude. Mind you, they are both plain speaking grumps!
And, please don't lynch me, I miss The Bill.
