any series where in the first episode a character tells his manservant to “launch the Lagonda” is worth watching in my opinion.
The Lord Peter Wimsey television series, based on Dorothy L. Sayers' novels, aired in 1987 as part of the BBC's "A Dorothy L. Sayers Mystery" series.

I am a big fan of the Emma Peel John Steed Avengers as well as the golden era British detective stories.

The Avengers was my favourite TVProgram in my youth. Initially in black and white, I was shocked to see that Emma Peel was actually a red head. Loved the Bentley and Lotus.
