Inspector George Gently (2007–2017)
6/10
Good, but...

Warning: Spoilers
I originally loved the series for the subjects it raised and how it went about it, though it could be a bit stuffy and judgemental at times.

I went off it completely when I realised that George Gently had become a hypocrite.

Spoiler of sorts.

In one episode he jails a police chief for the unfortunate outcome of actions he took to protect his disabled son, yet in a later episode, he happily uses an illegal firearm to protect himself from gangsters and corrupt police.

That was the last one I saw, as I lost any desire to see him judge people for behaviour he would ignore in himself.
