[@michelleduplooymalherbe2837]

Love these older detective shows, the Brits really do it well

[@maryjanegrant2429]

This is a very excellent series as are all the British detective series Thanks so much!!

[@melodieebner5562]

So many young actors who are now famously well known, so wonderful to see them just starting out in their careers. Great series and follows the story line from P.D. James novels superbly.

We have the same first name ☺️
I only comment on it because there are so few of us with that spelling.

@@melodiefrances3898 your name is beautiful as well. We share the German spelling of , a melody. Interesting that it is seldomly given as a name in Germany as well, so we are special. 🙂

Roy Marsden is one of Britain's greatest actors. Deserves an OBE.

[@PetroicaRodinogaster264]

they don’t give those honours to people just because they are good actors. They go to people who promote either acting or community services. Also, the actor has to accept the ward and if someone sees it as not important, they may refuse it.

[@annamarielewis7078]

I truly love a handsome bald policeman in a great suit.. Those eyes. . I grew to love Dalgleish as he lost his hair. And those dreadful toupees. Bald is beautiful, even in a few women.

[@joyhancock2703]

Joss Ackland is a great character actor. I can still remember him in Kipling Tales of India in the early 60's.

[@annamarielewis7078]

Love him too. So handsome.

[@davidallen6970]

it was a superb series with good scripts actors and direction. the reason i do not own a television now is because there are no dramas worth watching now, a combination of lack of will and finance, silly graduates in charge of production and politics. the series was complimented with music so evocative and heart rending. thanks for uploading.

Wow! Uncle Albert was posh back then! Never thought I'd see Buster Merryfield's range as an actor this broadly.

[@pauljackson2473]

I went on EBay and Amazon to find these on DVD form. I wanted hard copies. I got all the older Dagliesh miniseries super cheap. Unfortunately they don’t have much value to many people besides some British mystery fans. The newer ones were a bit more expensive but not by much.

[@sunnybearbuds]

Yes! I found this on DVD too! So happy with it!

This tv series shows how hospital standards have dropped since 1984, the year I was born. How lovely the nurses speak to each other.

Yes, as a nurse I can tell you that people are no longer civil. But I'm glad we use gloves now! And trousers are essential; squatting in a dress to assist a patient is...well...not a good idea.

[@anitagiddings1132]

Great series. I stopped watching this one earlier since the Pierce character was such a pill. I'm glad I found it again, Pierce made a good victim.

Nightingale House seems to be a pretty spooky place at night with the deserted corridors, narrow staircases and many nooks and corners.

[@alcoholfree6381]

Joss Ackland is a consummate villian. I recently watched play a teaching master at Khan school who ends up murdering two people. For some reason he doesn’t strike me as a positive force, such as Dalgleish?? Great series.

[@ardeladimwit]

more people coming and going in and out of green houses and closets than a Rossini opera

[@sunnybearbuds]

This will always be a great one. I miss these things on tv. Everything now has to be perfect-looking, but the standards for writing and acting don't seem high.

[@crochetedlace2838]

Nobody ever feels any sense of emergency when they find a dead body in these shows. They stare for a long time and walk slowly in a trance to a phone or another person.

[@TeaAtTwo2]

A state of shock is understandable. Also, if it's a dead body and the killer isn't clearly around then what's the rush?

[@maureenelliott4986]

Now, they just scream! I've decided if I ever find a dead body, I'm going to say, Oh my God! and then get help. No screaming.

[@inganorden1816]

Jo's boyfriend is quite a piece of work! Totally relaying on her for contraception, placing higher priority on his writing "career" than the child they had created...but her attitude was rather cavalier as well. Couldn't stand the hypocritical nurse Pierce - had it been her to find the money, she would not have turned it in. She was destined for a bad end.

[@waldemarlopess]

Remember in the 80's it was known amongst young pregnant women how smoking would inhibit the growth of the developing baby. Some deliberately kept on smoking in an effort to hide their state.

Could a stomach wash be performed via a tube that had poison passing through it?

[@Thepourdeuxchanson]

Yes, but not for long...

[@alcoholfree6381]

It is no problem to remove the contaminated tube and insert a larger NG tube for lovage. Unfortunately dilution will usually not save the day with caustic poisoning as the lye quickly binds to the tissue. In addition the poisoned person never dies as fast as in the movies; even with cyanide. It usually takes hours.

The drama puts her in a position of authority and responsibility, so she looks it; don't forget that a later scene shows her with an obvious female lover.

[@maricamaas2326]

Tragic how women who get involved with married men, believe their empty promises about leaving their wives. Also that they could be deceived into considering a cheater to be a good choice.

[@meofamily4]

When the mother informs the father that she's going to have a child, by law he becomes responsible for financial support of that child for the next 18 years. So her statement that she just wanted to let him know of her decision falls short of the facts.

Much of the dialogue in both episodes was not clear to me, partly due to the vocabulary of Brit words, the Brit accent, poor enunciation and my less than perfect hearing.

[@LondonEE16]

Back in the 80s there used to be really implausible matches between men and women in British dramas. On what planet would beautiful and young Eleanor David want to get it on with Joss Ackland? Much as I respect him as an actor, he is not in her league and wouldn't be even if he weren't old enough to be her father. Same goes for the females John Thaw was given as love interests in Morse. He had some sex appeal for sure, but he was not particularly handsome. Too often there was a looks gap, as well as an age gap. The age gap continues to this day.
