Enemy At The Door is a British television drama series made by London Weekend Television for ITV. The series was shown between 1978 and 1980 and dealt with the German occupation of Guernsey, one of the Channel Islands, during the Second World War. The programme generated a certain amount of criticism in Guernsey, particularly for being obviously filmed on Jersey despite being ostensibly set on Guernsey. The series also marked the TV debut of Anthony Head as a member of the island resistance. The theme music was by Wilfred Josephs.

Sherlock Holmes n'était pas le seul détective au travail à la fin de l'Angleterre victorienne. D'autres, parfois honnêtes, parfois peu dignes de confiance, mais tous très compétents, étaient à l'œuvre dans toute l'Angleterre, et aussi dans la vieille Europe. Dans chacun des 26 épisodes de cette série, un nouveau crime est mis en scène et un nouveau détective (rival de Sherlock Holmes) est chargé de le résoudre.

Public Eye is a British television series that ran from 1965 to 1975. It was produced by ABC Television for three series, and Thames Television for a further four series. The series depicted the investigations and cases handled by the unglamorous enquiry agent Frank Marker, an unmarried loner who is in his early forties when the series begins. In the words of an ABC trailer for the third series: "Marker isn't a glamorous detective and he doesn't get glamorous cases—he doesn't even get glamorous girls. What he does get is people who are in trouble—the sort of trouble you can't go to the police about, even if you are innocent."
