Press clippings

Charters and Caldicott did one thing which took my breath away. When they found a body in the bedroom they did not, as is the norm, take it surreptitiously round to the squire's library or embalm it as a paperweight, they called the police. A stroke of amazing originality this. I hold out, however, no great hopes for the success of the serial. They might have been better advised to call the undertaker.

Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 11th January 1985
