About this item

Amazon.com Superintendent Andy Dalziel is no typical supersleuth; though canny and observant, he's also crude and pushy to the point of brutish--but in the hands of Warren Clarke, the lumpy yet charismatic actor who plays Dalziel, he's the driving force of a very-long-lived British crime series. His partner is Detective Inspector Peter Pascoe (Colin Buchanan), who approaches crime from a more educated, intellectual perspective. It's a classic pairing of opposites that drives these cunning mysteries. Dalziel and Pascoe: The First Season includes three episodes: "A Clubbable Woman," about sexual high jinks and murder among the members of a rugby club; "An Advancement of Learning," about sexual high jinks and murder at a university; and "An Autumn Shroud," about sexual high jinks and murder at a country estate. Surprisingly, despite the broad similarities of the shows, each episode is sneaky and colorful, full of winding turns and vivid characters (played by guest stars like Prunella Scales of Fawlty Towers and Francesca Annis of Reckless and The Libertine). But make no mistake, this is Clarke's show. Clarke makes Dalziel completely engaging even though the policeman can be downright mean in his drive to figure things out. It's a fascinatingly real performance, full of warts and wrinkles, revealing a piercing intelligence and granite integrity. For anyone who enjoys murder mysteries, Clarke is not to be missed. --Bret Fetzer Product Description Dalziel and Pascoe: Season One (DVD) The blunt-talking Detective Superintendent Andy Dalziel does not suffer fools gladly, but he has even more trouble with what he calls the "smart arses" of this world. So when the inexperienced Peter Pascoe joins his team at Mid-Yorkshire CID, the omens don't look good. Pascoe is one of the new breed of career police officers, armed with a degree, a caring attitude and a sharp brain. But just as Pascoe is surprised by the intuitive methods of his brash boss, so too does Dalziel begin to recognize the merits of his Detective Inspector… ]]>
