Line 7:
Seasons 1-3 aired between 1997 and 2000. A Christmas special aired in 2001, introducing TV presenter Carla Burrego as Maddy's replacement and was followed by a full fourth season in 2003-04. Although a full revival seems unlikely, there have been a couple of feature-length specials (featuring third female sidekick, Joey Ross), one at New Year 2009, and one at Easter 2010.

* [[Abuse Is Okay When Its Female On Male]]: Used as a plot-point in "The Scented Room" in which Lady Theresa's abuse of her husband is first seen as amusing (when she puts stinging nettle in her [[Jerkass]] husband's sandwich) and then deadly serious when she hits him over the back of the head with a trowel. Later, {{spoiler|after a valuable painting mysteriously vanishes, her husband uses this head wound to make it seem as though he'd been attacked by an intruder in order to claim money from the insurance company}}. A witness also points out that Lady Theresa's behaviour is completely inappropriate, especially in front of her young son.▼
* [[Always Murder]]: Averted, although murder is involved in at least half the stories.
* [[Amateur Sleuth]]: Jonathan - very reluctantly.
Line 46:
* [[Derailing Love Interests]]: Nicola from "The Grinning Man" dumps Jonathan in order to run off with a man she's never met.
* [[Detective Drama]]
▲* [[
* [[Drives Like Crazy]]: The DI in "Mother Redcap" which greatly unnerves Jonathan.
** Maddy, at times. At one point Jonathan freaks out because she's dialing a number on her cellphone whilst driving.
