Dalziel and Pascoe
Created by Reginald Hill
On BBC One
A long-running British procedural built on the chemistry between two contrasting detectives solving murders in Yorkshire, balancing mystery with character-driven humour and warmth.
In the fictional Yorkshire town of Wetherton, the unlikely duo of politically incorrect elephant-in-a-China-shop-copper DS Andrew Dalziel (pronounced Dee-ell) and his more sensitive and university educated sidekick DS, later DI, Peter Pascoe is always on hand to solve the classic murder mystery, while maintaining down-to-Earth wit and humour.
