>>Not vaguely believable. Where to start.
Well it beats Poirot on the plausibility dimension, but I agree. Few real policemen get to investigate 2 or 3 murders every week.
Did you actually watch it Duncan? It doesn't sound as if you did. Didn't Fred Thursday lend his life savings to his brother in an earlier series without realising where it was going? (E&OE, I never remember these things either).
Upstairs wanted the Blenheim investigation shut down, ostensibly because of the cost but really because of the involvement of bent coppers in whatever had been going on there.
Fair point re Anton Lesser but what a great character. Even less believable was the corrupt DS Arthur Lott, who looked about 100 years old.
I'm sure I missed a lot myself, I have to get the boss to explain plots to me, but what a brilliant series.
