Isn't Lawrence Fox off to seek and fail to get fame and fortune in Hollywood? I'm not sure that DC Maddox has enough 'oh noes teh backstory' for her own spin-off, but then as t__m__i pointed out, Lewis didn't have ONTB before he got his own series. I think it's time for her to have her own series, really.

David Dundas - a man who could respond to a brief.
I remember the C4 music - they played it in the breaks because they struggled to get advertisers in the early days, especially late at night. It was going to fail! No-one would watch it!
Why anyone thought a combo of subtitles, shagging and prurient reality TV would fail is anyone's guess, but it was the past and they did things differently there
ITV does have a long history of bad crime drama and for the problems of minor area issues one could cite Wycliffe. A series which manages to make Cornwall look like a place with dull scenery by virtue of rubbish camera angles and shooting when it was dull and overcast (though admittedly that is the weather a lot of the time). Dreary scripts and actors without charisma also help.
