One of the pleasures in life I truly enjoy is a good British mystery show. I am not a fan of all the shows just a select few. For the life of me I cannot figure out what it is that attracts me. The latest one I have been watching is Foyles War which is about a Police inspector in a small English town during World War 2 who investigates all sorts of crimes. Intricate well written stories with good characters. Some of the other shows I enjoy are Taggart, Inspector Morse, Law and Order UK and A Touch of Frost. There is a rawness about these shows, their stories and I find the characters fascinating. As each show is a stand alone story the characters take a long period of time to develop. While some of the terminology is not easy to understand and I have to Google some of the words I find the intelligence of the stories refreshing.
