When I watch murder mystery drama..Midsommer Murders and Rebus I sense the double bluff in a plot and see the actor going along with that double bluff.Morse was always more clever...but if I haveread an author then watch a drama based on the authors genre then I see the "lie"
Agatha Christie is not as sophisticated as modern drama but I still enjoy watching Miss Marple .Some of the time its the stage set and scenery I enjoy .I also like theatre stage sets...
Scandanavian murder mystery is too clever for me..comes from a whole different stable.
