Yes, I think they are brilliant and if you think you could do better then I suggest you start writing.

I can understand your dislike of Belgians Mal, bloody foreigners coming over here and taking our jobs, claiming our benefits and putting mayonnaise on their chips.

I don't understand how you can say it is rubbish, written by probably the best crime writer of all times, well acted and always a cliffhanger ending.
But I suppose you cant beat "I'm celebratory" :( :( :(

Agatha Christie had an annoying habit of introducing some little fact that the reader could not possibly have known about, late on in the book. "Yesterday, I took an omnibus out of St Mary's Meade and went to check something out with an old friend..."

Then again, Charles Dickens would do things like that. Introducing really important characters late on in the tale just to make something happen.

People who consider Poirot 'rubbish' must surely run out of adjectives to describe how bad most of the other material on TV.

totally agree. But series like Miss Marple, Midsommer Murders go on and on for ever. When you get a decent series like Wallander it last 6 episodes.
