Loved this show. George Sewell was great as the boss as well. It should be back on tv instead of some of the current "comedies".

I agree, but George Sewell sadly passed away in 2007. I don't think it would be the same without him.

Such underrated show just brilliant tv😊

This is still hilarious. Brilliant show.

The most underrated comedy ever...

Underrated? Why? It’s too easy to use the word underrated when you like something and think more people should be like you. As it happens, I enjoyed the programme very much and still watch the videos that I bought.

Absolutely class show. The Cup Final episode is superb

"And what's your name?" "Olivia" "I know you live here"

This series was so funny please put put back on tv

I'd forgotten how good this comedy series was , Robert Powell was a revelation in the role I always found it amusing that he played Jesus of Nazareth and then he was in this with Jasper Carrot, hilarious.

Brilliant these two

He dropped quickly from a Monkey (£500) to a pony (£25).

And Jesus from Jesus of Nazareth

I used to love watching this growing up..

I loved the episode when the detectives attempted to play golf.

Robert Powell,the first famous person I ever saw, on a street in London! Many years ago!

I loved this series, first episode I ever saw was "Pilchards" Laughed like a drain and was hooked 😆😆😆😆

My grass or elephant's have not been rumbling

Louis & Briggs were beyond stupid! This series was gold, Carrott and Powell just smashed it.

A pair of merchant bankers. 😂

This was the funniest show around.

The grass is Paul Barber, known for playing Denzil in Only Fools And Horses. I like to think he's playing the same character, making this a crossover. The Detectives also crossed over with The Paradise Club (remember that show?) and Bergerac, so it's quite possibly deliberate.

Also, I believe George Sewell was in a series called ‘Special Branch’, lol.

Made me chuckle, great team 👍

That show was written by Steven Knight and he did myriad of other good stuff but nobody has heard of him.

Funny. Questioning a scouser for an invisible elephant and a square bottle of chairs in the Queen Vic. Thort I was funny

They must have been in hysterics off camera!

Pure gold!!!

It's Denzel.

I remember an episode where the two of them trekked through the northern countryside carrying a door while interacting with locals who they were convinced were speaking Viking!?🤨

We are Detective. 💓💓💓💓💓😛😛💓💓💓💓💓

@ 3:00 It's Denzel !

I loved this show. One of the funniest eps was when they used a tape recorder during an interrogation.

‘Jesus Christ!’ … (one IS allowed to exclaim loudly, whenever Robert Powell is seen on tv).

He wanted to put a monkey on a dog at catford,priceless.

Most of it was slang but not rhyming slang.

Who knew Jesus was funny………. Maybe his Pans Person……….

Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
