Before I saw Inspector Wexford on TH-cam, I had never even heard of this series, but now it is a favorite of mine. Mr. Goddard, thank you for posting this marvelous series.
I'm 15 minutes in and don't have a high opinion, but based upon your comment, maybe it will get much better. That happens. 30 minutes in. The writing could be tightened up a lot! Also, the hospital does a biopsy, finds a problem, but won't tell the patient? Not in a million years. Bad writing again.
Agree. One of the very best detective mystery series. Thanks for making it available at long last. So sad it is never shown anymore or more widely available.
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful series. Thanks also for including the credits as there were many recognisable actors and it was great to actually be able to read them. They no longer make such shows - to viewers' regrets.
I've been away from England for over 40 years now and it's such a treat to have only recently discovered this program on TH-cam. I truly enjoy watching the various episodes the platform pulls up. Thank you so much. I have always enjoyed crime series, especially the English ones, and I can't stop watching these. Thank you again.
I’m a Mexican-American born in Chicago (both of my parents were born in Mexico) who has watched and loved British mystery programs for more than forty years. Sometimes it’s a little hard for me to make out what’s being said because of some thick British accents, so I usually have the closed captions so I can understand what’s going on. Well, I’ll have you know that there have been many times that I’ve understood what was said and the cc got it wrong!! 😊
I thought these would be dated but I was surprised at how well they stand up.Quality of the acting and of course Ruth Rendells wonderful story-telling make them a gem.Thanks for uploading.
The practice of not telling women their medical information and diagnosis, but telling the husband instead has thankfully gone down in the depths of mysogeny. My cousin died of uterine cancer not knowing what was wrong with her because doctors couldn't bring themselves to say the word "uterus" to a woman.
Thank you for taking the time to upload this excellent quality episode. Really appreciated. Such good mysteries keeping us guessing until the very end.....
Thank you for posting these..I really enjoy them..I can't walk much these days..and when I am sore I sit and watch them on my phone...so really appreciated.
Very glad to hear you enjoy them, Margaret. Sorry to hear you aren't so mobile nowadays. Would one of those 'scootmobiles' help you to get about more?? I don't know what they are called in English. They are like a scooter (an Italian Vespa), but on three wheels, and run on electricity. They are specially designed for people like you. Or have you perhaps got one already?
Clicked out of curiosity. Watched 30 minutes of this episode. Created Inspector Wexford playlist and am now adding everything I can find on TH-cam. Thank you :)
Absolutely love these😍I can even see how this influenced Midsomer Murders right down to Wexford and Barnaby's daughters going into acting 😃 Thank You 😃👍🇨🇦
Thankyou for posting these. A fantastic series that is completely overlooked by the tv networks in running once again. George Baker was an outstanding actor along with all the actors of the series. It and Morse are my all time favorites!!
Barbara, That sounds like a perfect environment to see an English mystery. 🤗. I love the English mystery too and I will acquire your idea of the 1000 cups of tea while looking at these mysteries. ❤
Really enjoyed watching Wexford. I love this type of Murder Mystery. The download was excellent and I didn't have any problem with the sound. Thank you 😊😊😊
101:55: It would break my heart and boil my head to hear my spouse refer to our second child as making up for either the death or deficiencies of a first child. Sometimes I think people should have to see licensed to rear children, because unfortunately literally just about anyone can sire or bear a child, but not everyone can raise one.
And then see what Nora has to say about _her_ parents, and you have it in a nutshell. Nice intelligent matter-of-fact young woman who's not afraid to look facts in the face. Bitter, of course, but who wouldn't be with parents like that. The mother especially is a bloody pain in the neck.
I have been saying this for years, and as a teacher, believe me, I’ve had plenty of reason to continue to think so. Why not? You need a license to drive a car, get married, and open a store. Rearing children is difficult and none of us is born knowing how to do it. There are many classes that are available, child development being the most important. Not too difficult to teach in high school, as part of the science curriculum, but no, it seems more important to to Mars.
Will parents ever realize that spoiling their kids do them no favors? Both Sheila and Sylvia for example can't ever seem to fend for themselves, and keep ruling both their parents. Spoil your dog or cat, not your kids.
A real Complicated Case. I really like this entire Series. Had watched all the Episodes 3 / 4 years back , but missed this one. Enjoy watching it all over again.
I love watching these old English murder mysteries, 6000 miles away from the UK in tropical heat so I never have to put any heating on and risk finding myself in the poor house as a consequence. I probably wouldn't recognise England any more; it's changed so much in the last 35 years.😁😁😁
Thank you so much for uploading these wonderful episodes on TH-cam I just love English TV series especially Crime and Mystery,oh and hands down English comedies are my favorites.
@1:27 The doctor should not have said anything about Dora Wexford to her husband first before telling her. It's her body, she has a right to know first, and she should be the one to decide if she wants to tell her husband, not the other way around. I absolutely love watching all these episodes, I'm very grateful for them being posted.
Maybe they told Reg first because he was worrying about Dora more than she herself was! And Reg and Len are old friends. But I do agree entirely with what you say.
@@PetroicaRodinogaster264 Reg is a human being with human emotions. And he is sensible enough to express his emotions instead of bottling them up, which really _is_ dangerous and unhealthy. He's worried sick about his wife possibly having cancer, and on top of that he has a particularly nasty murder case on his hands. Anyone would be gruff under those circumstances. OK, he growls and snaps a bit, but wouldn't you? Anyway a barking dog never bites, or so they say :-) And his wife & daughter don't seem unduly bothered either ... I think they should have the deciding vote, don't you?
Only seven minutes in, but I had to say, this is a really top quality upload, thank you. The visuals and sound are, so far, crystal clear. I wish I’d found your channel earlier, as I’ve watched several Rendells today, and quality was lacking throughout. I’m commenting now because I know the books, have already enjoyed the excellent scripts and acting, so, now I know I can look forward to two more hours of good clear vid, I’m settling down for the night. I am really appreciative of your time and effort uploading this, as well as, I assume, your efforts in ‘cleaning up’ video, or sourcing high quality. There’s lots of people like myself with pain issues and not much social life who *relish* decent offerings such as this. Kudos, and thanks from Australia, I’ve liked and subbed
Same here!! I've been enjoying and re-enjoying this series for 4 or 5 years now. I never get tired of watching them, or Agatha Christie's Poirot. Such superb quality whodunnits.
Thank you sir! Your upload is of excellent quality. Much appreciated!😁👵👍 I too love all the Wexford videos, love the older British mysteries; they beat what we have in America. This charming genre just doesn't exist on this side of the pond. Yes, I like some of our sleuths, but it's still different. Agatha Christie is top notch too...blessings your way!😊💐
As a European I am very fond of some US crime series, like Murder She Wrote and, of course, my all-time hero Colombo. But I have to admit that Britain has produced the very best Queens of Crime.
OMG..... the Doctors previous incarnation ❤ thank you for uploading 😊 since I had to leave England due to Brexit it's glorious to wallow in the past good times. Thanx
Thank you, another good one! Diane Keen is a beautiful woman, always surprises me that she didn’t become more famous in films not just for her looks but for acting talent.
Thank you so much for posting, I love Ruth Rendell and knew that these stories were out there somewhere in a different medium. Chin chin from across the pond 😉😊
say's a lot about VHS , ten years ago , a survey stated that 10 percent of Canadians still use a VHS. still have mine , along with my series of inspector morse. there is a lot out there that you can't get on DVD or online. thanks for showing what you Have. Graham
Thank you Paul.. I appreciate it very much, it's sad but I look forward to your posting these. There's nothing really worth watching during this pandemic.
I admire you for being able to watch a video while sewing! :-) How do you manage? Don't you stick the needle in your finger, or sew two sleeves together, or anything like that?

Yes but these are much better, M.M. is ok but far too implausible, at least Wexford is somewhat more believable.
I noticed that also and I love MM.
@@TheVaughan5 Sure, but MM is meant to be a bit arch. Or rather was, as it has lost all sense of whimsy now.
I think only Sheila’s an actress. Am I wrong?
