When I was six years old in 2001, it was a staple family activity to sit down and watch The Inspector Lynley Mysteries on TV. Over 20 years later, adult me was elated to find out the classic crime drama was being rebooted... but it's nothing like what I expected.
To be clear, that's a compliment. The new BBC drama Lynley has a life of its own, defining its famed inspector (Leo Suter) through a brand-new lens. There are class wars, rookie mistakes and a frosty partnership with DS Havers (Ted Lasso's Sofia Barclay).
