Inspector Lynley deserves more than 6 seasons
4 November 2016
Warning: Spoilers
Four British detective-type series from the noughties stand out...Inspector Lynley, Rosemary and Thyme, The Last Detective, and Judge John Deed. All of these series finished before their time unfortunately. Inspector Lynley should have run longer than six seasons as it really is a top drawer police drama.

Maybe the lack of police chases or whatever meant The Inspector Lynley Mysteries wouldn't get the longevity it deserved. So many things about this fine series is appealing. The understated emotions between Lynley and Havers - all credit to the scriptwriter, director and of course the actors Nathanial Parker and Sharon Small. I also liked the contrasts between the locations outside of London, with London itself. Great scenery and atmosphere.

The Inspector Lynley Mysteries deserves a reboot big time, seriously. It's not too late to bring back this fine, distinguished series.
