Oh to have ever looked so good in shorts!

It's only just dawned on me that Duane is played by the guy who was the Cat in Red Dwarf!

Yes and the very senior one is Philip from Rising Damp AND Fidel was in Downton as the band singer. And, and !

Don Warrington (Philip/Commissioner) is still very recognisable, but Duane/Cat has changed a bit over the years. And yes, Camille is seriously hot! That skin, those shorts!

Philip from Rising Damp!!! I was saying to DP last night "who is he".
And someone else, was it in that? Adam from Casualty.

Ridiculous programme, but v easy watching.

Sad to say I have recently discovered DIP and am loving it despite myself! Total lowest common denominator stuff but it is strangely watchable.

Though can any longtime watchers explain to me why a sovereign island which was clearly originally colonised by the French requires a British detective to lead the local police service at all times? Confused Baffling.

I'm not sure it's ever been explained and we don't ask! Mind you, the USA "took over" Vietnam when the French left, it could be worse!

DH and I love this Grin

It isn't supposed to be realistic...

I was worried about Kris Marshall replacing Ben Miller, but I'm finding him just as enjoyable to watch.

Where can I watch the first two series?

Are they on demand?

i used to think it was utter tripe, but its one of the only programmes DH likes to watch, and as he's always on the PC, its nice to have one hour a week where we can cuddle up on the sofa together. Its more predictable this series but eagle eyed DH has noted its different writers this time round.
Its still tripe but i've accepted it now. A bit like speed bumps and cellulite.

I love this! It's the best programme on these days!

We always watch it with the heating turned up and a Bacardi and coke. It's like having a little holiday.

Seem to be a lot of murders for a small island

But like midsummer - wouldn't want to live there either Grin

I love Camille too, her accent in gorgeous!

Who is the actor that played the bloke that got killed in the last episode, I can't remember what other shows he has been in!

I like the way you can always tell who the murderer is because they are the famous cameo.

I love it, I love the way Dwayne life/friends seem to cross over the law/criminal line all the time. He would make a good criminal.

When I first posted on this I said that they hadn't done a bad job with replacing Ben Miller and carrying on the series . Now I don't yet dislike Kris Marshall in this but I'm starting to find him a teensy bit irritating and found myself really missing Ben Miller this week Sad. I do hope Kris is not just going to get more and more annoying until I can't watch it any more!

The guy who plays Dwayne and who played Cat on Red Dwarf (and was on cbeebies a long time ago) didn't he also play a character called Dwayne on Red Dwarf? Like an alter ego to Cat?

Yep, Dwayne Dibley. Grin

Since you've mentioned Red Dwarf can I link because I never tire of watching it!

We discovered this about halfway through the last series typical. Loved it with Ben Miller. It's still watchable tosh but now the weaknesses seem more obvious; Camille is gorgeous but can't act and it's fetti g a bit samey now.
Still intend to watch it, though.
And I agree Dwayne Dibley is the best thing about it.

On a different note, we watched True Detective with Matthew Mcwatsit and Woody Harrelson the other night - was brilliant! Feel a bit guilty eulogising about an American cop show, though.
