Family discussion this afternoon about who is, or was, the best fictional detective on our screens.
Any suggestions?

Columbo, by a country mile.

	Icon? It's all Rio Ferdinand's fault.

She's not a detective. She's a Godess.

The one who was a cross country runner*-by a country mile

Real fans go to pubs like the HITW or the Welly

Talking of Goddesses : Cecile Paoli - the best of Jim Bergerac's lady friends.She could have shown me the hidden parts of her Jersey anytime (copyright SATW) .Symptomatic of the series , the scenery was better than the plotlines.

No Jane she is forever etched in my mind . I thought about her a lot when I was a teenager ...

(I may be turning into SATW actually with responses like that)

But which Sherlock?

Columbo without a doubt!!

In recent years, Jimmy McNulty in the Wire, although technically he was a cop and not a detective.

Mick Belker is a great shout.

I would have to have to say Columbo, but there were so many since the 1960s all offering difrrent skills and in some cases humour- ( Sorry for any mis-spellings) McCloud, Cannon, McMillan and wife, the Snoop Sisters, Bannacech, Petrocelli, Kojak, Sherlock Holmes (Jeremy Brett version), Marple, Morse, Lewis, Bergarac, Wycliffe, Starsky and Hutch, Poirot, Carter and Regan (the Sweeney), George Dixon (of Dock Green - he offered re-assurance rather than solving crimes), Jane Tennyson, Jessica Fletcher, Cagney and Lacey, Ironside to name but a few !
