When I was young Saturday night wasn't Saturday without Kojak before Match of the Day but my vote would have to go with Columbo. He was funny, clever and such a good actor.

I don't know if you'd class her as a detective really, but my heroine when I was a little girl was Purdy, from The Avengers. I always wanted to be her..... high-kicking baddies in the teeth, whilst managing to look gorgeous at all times!!

Cool thread you have here. I can't pick one though. I like all the choices and some that you forgot to mention that other posters have brought up too. But my favorite dectective would have to be me. I learned from all of them at one point in my life or another. So, i have the CSI skills, the investigation and observation skills, research skills and even the MacGyver ingeniuty all combined. I'll even throw in a little of the mythbusters.

Well, I did put a close cousin on the poll list - Benton Fraser R.C.M.P..... but nobody voted for him!! If it wasn't for the brilliant mind of Sherlock Holmes, he'd get my vote anyday!!

Blimey! Wouldn't want to go on a date with you! You'd deduce everything about me, and find out about all the skeletons in my closet!!
