Inspector Lynley Mysteries

Dark and psychological, the Inspector Lynley Mysteries is interesting to watch, but there is too much reliance on the juxtaposition of the aristocratic Inspector Thomas Lynley (Nathaniel Parker) with the working-class Sergeant Barbara Havers (Sharon Small). Lynley’s haughty pretentiousness wears thin and his interaction with Havers comes across as condescension rather than humorous. The show is based on the novels by Elizabeth George.
