Backdrop

Murder Most English

1970s detective series based on the Flaxborough novels by Colin Watson. Starring Anton Rodgers as Detective Inspector Purbright and Christopher Timothy as Detective Sergeant Love, the series pays tribute to a long-gone England of heavy tweed jackets, dial telephones, typewriter ribbons and good old-fashioned investigation and deduction.
