1) Morse
2) Dalziel and Pascoe
3) Sherlock Holmes ( with Jeremy Brett )

I watched that daft " who would solve your murder " thing on tv the other week and still can't comprehend how Columbo came top ?? The bloke obviously can't even find a dry cleaners for his mac let alone a murderer!
Makes me think they only picked him because he was still around for a quote whereas the late lamented John Thaw sadly isn't.

Just goes to show that you shouldnt judge on the wrapping only. :p Besides that mac is as well known as Morses Jag Holmes and his deerstalker and pipe and the drinking that Dalziel does. ;)

Oooh I vaguely remember Fabian of the Yard.

How about Sabre of London?

I'd forgotten Cadfael too. Those are superb stories.
