Which British TV detective drama series stars two actors who are brothers in real life?

Arthur White, who plays the police archivist Ernie Trigg in "A Touch of Frost" is David Jason's brother (Jason was born David White). He doesn't appear as often as George Savalas in "Kojak" though. I'm guessing that newsreader John Suchet has never popped up in an episode of "Poirot"! Nov 19 03, 9:15 PM

I'd have said Telly and George Savalas as well. 'Stars' suggests it is still running, but there are probably re-runs showing somewhere. Nov 20 03, 3:07 AM

Oops! I took that to mean 'which detective series appearing on British TV' but obviously it mean 'which detective series made in Britain'. My mistake. Nov 20 03, 7:05 AM
