The series finale aired under the title Maigret at Bay (1969). Furthermore, Rupert Davies in character as Chief Inspector Jules Maigret, acted as the host of the anthology series Detective (1964).
German-speaking viewers will not hear the theme music by Ron Grainer; instead, a musette theme composed by Ernst August Quelle is used for all episodes. On soundtrack samplers, e.g. "Strassenfeger", only this most popular theme is usually presented in Germany.
The complete series was released on Blu-ray in August 2021. This was the first time some of the episodes could be seen in 50 years.
