- From the VHS Cover:
A chilling murder investigation begins when a young girl's body is found hidden in a vault in a gloomy London cemetery.
Loveday Morgan was strangled with a silk scarf. The only clues in her handbag were a photo and two telephone numbers.
Wexford, convalescing in London, finds himself irresistibly drawn to the case.
His unofficial investigation delves into the lives of those involved to reveal a moving story about adoption and the intense love of parents for their children.

I am a 76 widow in Mexico City and love watching these mysteries. Love Wexford and yes the scene with the blind lady was very moving. All the best to all of you.
Aren't they great?!
Welcome Mexico City! ❤😊❤😊❤
The scene with Wexford and the blind lady is indeed achingly moving. So beautifully written and acted. I’m grateful to be able to watch now what I missed over 35 years ago.
I am 76 in the US and enjoy the series too.
I have been reading the comments under these videos. I just want you all to know how much better I feel knowing you are out there in the world. I hope that being out and about is helping, and that you are all doing well.
It was a long two years of seeing a lot of the ugly things in people.
You all have reminded me that there are also a lot of beautiful people out there, watching great TV on RUclips, and finding joy.
Bless you.
A Nurse
Grateful to know you are in my world, too. Thank you for your service and please, stay safe.😊
What a lovely post! Thank you for taking care of the sick! God bless you ✝️ hi from SW MO
@purple Irish sweater...what a darling and lovely comment!! As a fellow (or sister,rather) nurse.... I know exactly what you mean!!...
I agree completely.... Except that I, myself ,am more of a "pinkish flushed sweater" ...but hopefully the HRC is helping!😂😂😘
I know how you feel. Retired Nurse
@purpleirishsweater, I so agree
The actress who played the part of the blind lady was perfect! So wise & so believable! The entire series is full of real life looking people, no fake faces & obvious wigs. Such a shame this series is not for sale on DVD. Thanks again for sharing!
I have it on DVD, box set, all of them.
This is a very well written story, great actors, and characters. Constance Chapman's played Mrs. Lyle the blind old lady, she was amazing when she said to Inspector Wexford, "Don't be afraid, You're younger than you know". Mrs. Lyle was not only speaking to Wexford, but to very generation as they grow older. This was a very powerful moment in the movie. I think Constance Chapman stole the show in this scene. Very well done.
I am in Seattle , WA , 4th week in confinement and the Inspector Wexford's movies are keeping me somewhat sane !
Thank-you Mr, Goddard.
Want to be really sane? Research flat earth, and come to your Heavenly Father through His Word and Guidance, in Jesus Christ.
Can't count how many times Wexford's age was brought up... sad how the self-confidence is taken away from people ending their careers. Again beautifully acted by George Baker and Christoph Ravenscroft!
The job is part of his identity - People can’t take that away; he accomplished quite a bit for a fictional character. Lol
The words of the blind lady are comforting and full of wisdom. I love this series. Incidentally, I've only just found it a week ago. So very happy I did!
I just found it yesterday!! Haha...good series.
I watched these years ago... They're so good...lots of asides and quips I missed first time around have me chuckling this time( especilly with the help of rewind and closed caption)
The scene between the elderly blind lady and Wexford was excellent. I don't know the actress's name but she brought a tear to my eye when she said "dont be afraid of getting old" then spoke about memories. I do think he should have made time to read one of her loved letters to her.
This was Wexford at its best. Thanks for uploading.
That was an amazing scene and my favorite in the movie. And the whole movie was great!
Skygazer the blind lady’s name is Constance Chapman 🤗🤗🤗
@@jjcl4346 thank you!
That was a really heartwarming scene
Maybe he will come back and read a few letters to her
Mr Wexford is a kind man..
I love that he’s on holiday in full suit, just lying around the house
I so love these Wexford mysteries. Thanks so much for posting them.
Thank you for this lovely series. I've chased away lockdown blues watching them. I had read so many of her books as a young girl but missed seeing them in video as I then lived in a country where cable/ satellite/dish TV was banned. Thank God I now live in Free Mumbai.
Thanks for giving us the opportunity to watch these episodes we wouldn’t have ever seen. So glad I found your channel.
Ian McNeice (Mr Teal) had the best lines, "Johnny" had the best voice and nuanced expression, Phil Glennister so young said so much without a word, so many twists, babies, plotlines, easter eggs and everyone acted as though there was no camera or production crew in the room. Amazing shows these, thanks so much.
In my opinion, Ian McNiece could make any line he was given "the best line"
He's so very talented! I was literally rolling with laughter at his delivery during "The man who went up a hill but came down a mountain" Have you ever seen it?
@@mariabarker2036 No, I haven't but I'll find it and then I'll know what made you laugh :)
and the episode of hornblower he is in. He elevates the whole thing to the next level@@mariabarker2036
Thank you for the opportunity to watch these videos. They're greatly appreciated.
Even though these are about murder and subterfuge, they are so lovely to watch as they were made in a time that blood and gore was hinted at and not shoved in your face, seeing all the old cars I grew up with and the way things look in happier times, it’s a very peaceful and nostalgic nod to the 80’s, I was not living in the uk and missed these so nice to finally see them, TY🙂 very clever bit when Wexford interviews the guy in the bed sit Jack Nicholson poster on the wall from the Shining, and Wexford says “what was the boyfriends name?” And the guy says “I don’t know John Jonny!?” Very clever weaving in such an iconic line from the movie, nice Easter egg! 22-11-19 10:43pm
En pointe Butterfly Crafter it was real human God-centered Judaeo-Christian culture world rather than the satanic culture we have now.
Would love to be in a type club where we could watch these great shows and recommend something more . I worked all the times these were on so I missed them . Thank you so much ! This was television in its prime .

Try Frost... I have always watched this Brit series
@Pat Gee love A Touch of Frost 🥰
Poirot is really good, if you like these you'll like them too.
The Sherlock Holmes, 1990s version with Jeremy Brett. 😊
Would love to see all eleven seasons! Thanks a lot. 🤗
Paul thank you so much for posting these, you said you were going to and I am so grateful for them.
Thank you so much for showing us these great TV shows! Loving them from Antigua!
Reading books and newspapers instead of staring at cell phones....love it!!
Yes Ma'am - they way life should be.
Another great episode from Inspector Wexford ! Thanks for posting this Paul :)
Thank you for sharing these wonderful old videos the absolutel best. When TV was worth watching.
I agree. It was nice when programmes took time to tell a story 🙂
So sad. Even the villain - pathetic. The sweet old lady, blind but clear eyed and even more upbeat than Wexford, makes all the sadness bearable. Worth watching just to her speak in the third act cracks the case.
Thank you so much for enabling me to watch 'Wexford ' because I never had the time whilst being a working mother and now I am almost 70yrs old it's great to see something. ..I don't know how to put it ...reasonably innocent . I wish I had not lost contact with my flat share friends in London during the 1970s but I often wonder how many of us are dead and (even harder ) whether we would recognise each other after all these years . Perhaps it is better to be forever young. Anyone else notice Jack Nicholson 's poster ?
Tempus Fugit yes, that poster is a popular one here in the states...its him, holding an empty roll of toilet paper...lol...am almost 74 myself, retired 5 years ago..now binge watching this whole series. Can't stand anything on our "tele"... Love any and all these UK series.
@TempusFugit
I have found friends from school online ... after 35 years. One, who had a bog-standard name, through her brother; and that connected me in to the people she knew, and had kept in contact with, from primary school; and was able to link her in with the others I had tracked down: one, from an industry she worked in, similar to me; one from sending Facebook messages to the three or four or five people with that name ... and the right one responded; and one thing leads to another.
You are right hard to find anything decent or logical to watch now these days.
I'm at an age where I'm yearning for yesteryear and simpler, less chaotic times as these. I've been a fan of British crime dramas for years and once I binge on one, I'm on the lookout for the next good series. So glad I found this! When I get off work, I light candles, get a glass of wine and tune in to DCI Wexford...BLISS!
I'm 68, and having lived through the 70's who would have thought looking back that those were better days. But we know they were.
So happy to have found this! ❤️ Somehow I missed the series is back in the day.
Really appreciate this!! Thank you! 😊
Ruth Rendell is a fantastic writer, I enjoy her books enormously, I think the actors in this series are excellent and do justice to her books. Thank you so much for posting them.
I'm not sure how this series came up into my list, but 3 in I'm hooked!!! Many thanks from Florida!!!!
I'm so glad you got hooked 🙂
@@paulgoddard Me too!
Me too. I left the UK IN 1986 and had not heard of this series until it popped into my RUclips feed! Wasted a whole day watching it! Must be more disciplined tomorrow! 🙄😆
Sameeeee
Thank you. Most enjoyable. I’m glad I have the chance to watch these now.
Thank you from South Africa..I absolutely adore this series❤️
Paul ! thank you so very much , soo appreiated x
Once again Paul, a sincere thank you. You are selfless and spread much contentment. Good man/boy/friend. Elizabeth
Terrific episode. For me, that" blind" woman steals the show. She was fantastic.
Yeah, Clive - she was awesome. Get younger as you get older - & have no fear. Brilliant.........
Constance Chapman (the blind old lady) was amazing.
She was adorable! Actress Constance Chapman had quite an extensive career: www.imdb.com/name/nm0152332/
She moved me to tears
I could go off Wexford if he keeps behaving as he does @5:15. He enters a house in which he is staying, and does not even grunt at his wife, Jenny, or even the Bub. it’s amazingly rude to just walk in, acknowledging no one, and break into a conversation by barking a question. His manner with the question is also extremely rude, no,”Sorry to interrupt, but has Mike returned”/etc. He’s addressing his hostess who is facing a week of this. Which is a very long time for guests anyway, without having a grumpy as well.
Thanks heaps for the upload. All the actors are stellar and look like they just walked out of one of the books, especially Burden and Wexford. And it’s so nice to see Mike less of a prude, and so happy.
Ruth Rendell is my favorite mystery writer. Thank you for letting her live again.
Great series. Thanks for the uploads.
I am enjoying this episode immensely, even if my last name is 'Loveday'.. Strange but a great bit of telly..
But I do think Reg and the 'chaps' are top rate..
Thank you once again @Paul Goddard, for sharing this, 'some meanderings down memory lane' for me at any rate.. Saturday evenings spent with Mum & Dad, trying to work out 'who did it and why'.
Best wishes from Wales ..
I used to work in a rest home there was lady called ms loveday.
Beautiful name!
Thank you for posting this series from my childhood. I used to love watching these with my mother. I occasionally remember bits and pieces but I guess a lot remained obscure for me back then. This one is my favourite so far.
So excellent. Great up load. Thank you. !
My 3rd episode of a new series for me. A bit of the paranormal in it, extra shivers in the mystery. Better and better! Thanks for posting it. 👏👍👍
Once again Thank you so much Paul. Great movie ;)
Thank you; great upload; great movie!😊🎶
What an excellent story line. Wexford is always full of surprises. 👍
Yes, thank you for posting this series. I have never seen these before & have only about 3 to go. Very well done. Greetings from Canada!!
Thank you for the Chief Inspector Wexford series. Not seen them before.
America here and we can still see them. So sorry, about the UK. I might rewatch them all.
Covid binge watching. Thanks
Wexford :"It's starvation!!!!"
Wexford :Whats for supper ?
Dora: Carrots, coriander soup,water biscuits and half a grapefruit
Wexford:Speechless😞😞
Dora: Diet remember? 😲😲
Thank you for posting Paul!
Thanks from cape Town south africa 🇿🇦we missed all this great shows via equity ban.
Thank you. Pretty much housebound. These entertain me. Thank you again.
Of course I love inspector Wexford and the relationship he has with his sidekick but occasionally, as of this episode I ask myself at the end, 'so what happened?' Frankly I don't know. Who murdered ? Who had the baby from whom, now being adopted, also so many babies, so many red herrings, twists & turns in the plot!! Is anyone else brave enough to admit to being clueless when it was finally over????
Yes, they absolutely do leave you with a lot of unanswered questions!!!
Ah, a respite from constant rain 14/10/19 ..... an enjoyable way to spend this afternoon Many thanks
I'm in the Pacific NW and can certainly relate on a blustery, rainy afternoon. 21/10/19
I too am sheltering from the rain - Scotland, 27/10. Shame this rain can't go to someone who needs it more!
Heart rendering. A wonderful story not to be watched if you are feeling sad.
This is an excellent detective story, full of intrigue and suspense. Fully enjoyed it. Thanks for the uploading. 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇
Great episode. Thanks for uploading :)
The Episodes are good 11 months later! THANKS BE TO MR. GODDARD😇🤓 for an Excellent Upload !
Thanks for posting.
Again, Thank you very much Mr Goddard.
Thank you for sharing🌷
Best actor of them all -- was the blind lady!
Awfully great episode." As you get older memories get younger"!!!!!
This was a thrilling episode . I think the cast are great . Never saw this series and now enjoying them in my retirement .
The scene between Wexford and the elderly, blind woman reduced me to tears. Her words were as smooth as butter. 🥰
The nostalgia this episode evokes. This is the London of 30 years ago, whiich I knew on an ELT grant, and came to love.
When was this filmed ? This London doesn't exist anymore !
Thank you for uploading this. Soft lockdown now,but glad to find your Chanel. Regards from Indonesia
That was excellent, I was thoroughly gripped all the way through it, thank you. I never even suspected ...
Thanks so much Paul! I enjoyed that a lot. I thought I knew for sure who was killer! 😅 Lots of twists in this one.
👍🇨🇦❤️thank you for these great Inspector Wexford videos
Thank You!
The bit I couldn't get my head round was the comment made at 1:14:34, why would Johnny "the murderer" be calling Louise, it's no wonder this took Wexford down the wrong path. I couldn't get my head round that part, maybe I'm just being dim
I really liked the old blind woman in this episode. I looked for The Unkindness Of Ravens, two episodes before this one, but couldn't find it. Is it available on RUclips?
I see that there are the Ruth Rendell Mysteries available to watch. I'm looking forward to watching them as soon as I am finished watching Inspector Wexford. The A Dark Blue Perfume episode has the actor who was I believe played the nephew of Miss Marple.
Many thanks for making these available. I am truly enjoying watching them, and really love the opening music.
Always great thanks
Just adore Mrs. Lyall - she’s precious
Thanks so much. Not sure why but the theme music is nostalgic to me. Takes me back home to Manchester even though I left in ‘79. 🇬🇧🇺🇸
That music struck me, too! This is the first time I've been watching this series. I have no idea how it escaped me in my younger days! That music really took me back to my days as a Canadian kid absorbing all things English on TV! That music just takes me right back!
That was fabulous! I love Reg and the gang ❤
Thank you 💐💐this series is excellent , I agree with the earlier comments, what can one add ?
Best writer, best character, best actor!
I wonder if dora will ever rebel against the crumbs she gets thrown.
Many thanks for putting Wexford on RUclips him and inspector Burden fantastic double act.
wonderful. Thanks
Philip Glensiter..playing a villain..weird so use to seeing him being Police/ Detective ...( never changes his hair style though)
Gail Wilkinson And so young! I’ve never seen him at that age... it’s fun to see his own mannerisms play over a slim and angled face.
I really enjoy the no cursing and no nakedness. Get mystery, can't figure it out until the end.
Agreed, Ginger. It's so good to have top drama and no cussing... no shoot em ups and no mad car chases or bombs going off. Fabulous!
@@nilgiridreaming l
And not too much yelling either (there was some).
Thanks for all the lovely episodes. This one, however, made me sit up at the lack of hospitality among the two detective families 😔
Love ❤️ this series, very addicting…BEST OF THE BEST….Love English Mysteries 👏👏👏👏🎄🎄🎄
Thank you
Thanks Paul from California
Thank you‼️👍👍👍
Omg imagine your boss coming to stay with you even if you are friends of sorts lol 😂
I thought they are shockingly unhospitable and Michael´s wife is really nasty. Nasty, unhelpful people are never a good investment in life...
It would be an honor from some.
Sad. Baby now grows up with out its real dad. Where is the love in that?
Do so enjoy these inspector Wexford videos.
Thank you once again.
God bless
Why didn't Wexford ask for a photograph of the daughter or get the photo he had identified as the daughter rather than spend 1 hr 27 min to know that the daughter was alive?
I guess because he's getting old?
Simply a joy to view,,many many thanks,👏👏👏👍🇬🇧
Getting older and having fond memories of love is one thing, but being 45 and having no memory of any real love, familial or otherwise, beyond the age of 11 is tragic.
I hope everyone who reads this realises just how damned lucky they are to have more than just vague memories of belonging and love.
Many thanks
Hi Paul- thanks for the uploads! Do you have the episode Secret House of Death? It’s a Ruth Rendell mystery but not a Wexford?
I got a little lost.
If Dearborn didn't do it, how'd the scarf get there?
Yeah I got a little lost towards the end. I lost track of the alias names and the connections and yeah the scarf thing I just gave up. I think i need to draw connection and relationship trees with mysteries of this length especially
Even the best of friends dont want to spend time with each other . Jenny sets the perfect example of how empty friendships can be! Sad....
Jenny wants time with her husband who invited Wexford and Dora without asking Jenny. That is why it is a difficult situation.
I don't understand Jenny's problem either.
I love the series but this one needed a good editor - it ran too long and went long on the detailed scenes. However amazing this was from a time when they allowed storylines to play out and took the time to play out long scenes and evolutions of plots - kind of in the real time of the way life unfolds. Unheard of today - also the London setting didn't work for me - this duo belongs in fictional Kingsmarkham - in that quiet out of the unpretentious setting.
I’m 72 years old and am enjoying these films for the first time. I must say that I have a hard time believing that so many people in every film are incredibly disrespectful of the police. Was that true in the’80’s or just in England? I’ve never known anyone to behave like that towards their local police. I’ve always been taught that they are like us and are trying to help their communities. By the way, I have no friends or relatives in that profession. Just my thoughts.
Poetic lisence. 😃
