    Another British one Mrs. Phibes and I enjoyed was River, which is on Netflix - it's slightly odd, in that one of the characters is dead, and is basically a figment of the main character's imagination.

    I know, it sounds like Randall and Hopkirk (deceased), but it really isn't - it's very good.

      A different approach...How about something to listen to while walking?

      Johnny Dollar is an investigator for different insurance companies. The premise of the show uses his expense account to narrate the plot.

        Jesse Stone, man. The books are just fun, and the movies are great, too. They're shot in a Hallmark movie kinda way but the stories are well-done.

        Bonus: a dog is a central character.

        Please love yourself.

          I could never buy Selleck as Jesse, though. He was just too . . . I dunno, Selleck.

            I thought he did an excellent job as Jesse. Magnum P.I. the show ain't, in every way.

                  I agree with Aqua. Thought Selleck was good in the Jesse Stone pics. Like him in Bluebloods as well.

                      No, Robert Urich didn't work for me, either. Neither did Avery Brooks, come to think of it.

                      I'd like to have seen Stacy Keach in the role.

                            There is one that takes place in the islands above Scotland (which is named for them) and I can’t remember that name either…

                              Should have remembered. Like the ponies. “Shetland”. There is another that I liked, I can only picture the guy, dark hair, sad face, beard. I’ll have to go Google it.
