Ruth Rendell, No.32 on the Ranker list of Crime Writers. This program was based on her first Reg Wexford novel. A solid Northern chap with an uptight, posh assistant.

[@a1bishop33]

Yes the posh uptight assistant was a terrible choice in every way. We got stuck with the awful Christopher Ravenscroft for the whole series.

Thanks. This one seemed quite different. I give credit to the people who made this series for trying many different plot techniques. Maybe it's not the correct term to describe it. But I never know what an episode will bring. Perhaps it's due to the author. I don't like few, but I think they deserve credit for not making cookie cutter scripts which are so common in crime procedurals. I appreciate being able to view them.

after the regular Wexford episode music , the episode begins with a very powerful and fast bit of music from near the end of the Romantic era of classical music . It sounds quite reminiscent of of Antonin Dvorak's first or 4th movements in one of his 9 symphonies . and no not the Largo from his final symphony #9 subtitled "The New World Symphony" purportedly but not proven, inspired by his visit and short stay in america .

Nice of you to upload these episodes of The Ruth Rendell Mysteries; unfortunately, the earlier episodes dating from around 1987-1992, despite already being released on VHS (which is hard to find these days), have yet to have been released on DVD due to an ongoing dispute over the ownership and licensing rights. The same problem has occured with most other programmes produced or commisioned by Television South (TVS) because although the original master recordings are very much intact, most of the paperwork and documents in relation to the TVS programme archive have been going missing, with TVS having gone through several takeovers since their licence to broadcast to the ITV network had expired at the end of 1992 and was not renewed, which means that the distribution rights cannot be determined. They might consider releasing these on DVD in the future once they've found the missing paperwork and all the other documents relating to the TVS archive, but that will probably have to wait for a very long time. BTW, how many more of these episodes of The Ruth Rendell Mysteries do you have in your collection?

[@paulgoddard]

Thank you Guy, it is a shame that this wonderful series hasn't been released onto DVD yet. I did buy a DVD boxset some years ago then disappointingly found out that it was only the last few that they made. I have noticed that there is a couple of German boxsets of early episodes, apparently you can set to English but the titles and credits are in German. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the ITV can sort something out regarding rights and release them officially. I have a few more Wexfords and some more recorded off ITV 3. When I have time I will upload more.

[@guypalmer7961]

@Paul Goddard Television South (TVS) is no longer a part of the ITV network, actually. They ceased broadcasting when their licence expired at the end of 1992 and was not renewed. They were subsequently replaced by Meridian and TVS subsequently went through several takeovers by several companies. Worse still, the current ownership is unknown because of the missing paperwork and documents in regards to the TVS programme archive although the master tapes and storage media holding the shows are more or less intact. Well, here's hoping that current owners of the TVS programme library are able to recover the missing paperwork and documents and hopefully release these on DVD in the future. In the meantime, I've found a link to a forum discussing on the whereabouts of the TVS programme archive and it's status. Here it is - tvforum.uk/tvhome/status-tvs-archive-41287/
