The Last Detective (2003–2007)
8/10
Don't judge the book by its cover

The Last Detective tv show is made after books by the author Leslie Thomas, I only know it from catching it on the box.

It's become a favourite show of mine,and something of a must see programme.

I have scarcely seen Peter Davison in anything else but I really like him in this show, he seems to fit the character like the proverbial glove.

So much so one might imagine that it could have almost been written for him.

I have not seen enough of Sean Hughes comedy routine to know if he is actually funny, but he certainly fits in well as Mod. There is great rapport between his character and Dangerous, such that its easy to imagine them hanging out together.

DC Davies is frankly something of a soft touch certainly, his ex spouse and work colleagues consider him as such. A regular doormat someone to walk all over, and clean their shoes on.

Any self respecting individual would get out from under PDQ, leave both the parasitical ex and the prats he is lumbered with at work.

But although they all dislike him they wouldn't ever dispense with his services, because he is too useful to them. Plus they are all mean spirited and spiteful, and he is too handy a target.
