I'm a sucker for British mystery shows. Last Sunday night, however, watching Father Brown on KCET, I just about swallowed my dentures when I saw a beautiful TD that looks just like mine! Same exterior and interior colors, although some other details are different (like RHD and the Bluemels steering wheel), but besides that, it's MY CAR!

Or, what mine will be if I ever finish the freakin' thing.

You can watch it on-line at https://www.kcet.org/shows/father_brown/full-episodes/watch-father-brown-episode-9-online-now.html. The TD shows up just after the 37 minute mark, but it's worth watching the whole show.

I, too, am a big British mystery fan Don't know if you get the same programming as we do, but Inspector Gently, DCI Banks, The Bletchley Circle, Scott and Bailey and Death in Paradise are all "must sees" for me. PBS is showing Season 2 of Father Brown in our area and you should be on the lookout for Episode 10, "The Laws of Motion", which takes place at a hillclimb. Lots of fantastic hillclimb cars are pictured.

add to that Foyle's War (which takes place during the war - LOTS of cool cars!) and, Midsomer Murders - there is almost invariably a classic car somewhere in the show.
