The character changed over the course of the series. When we meet him, he's somewhat flighty and irresponsible, still troubled and recovering by episodes of PTSD. His interest in solving murders comes about because he's very wealthy and bored. He's the second son, doesn't expect to inherit the his father's title because his brother has a nephew and can afford to indulge his whims. But, by the time we see him and Harriet married in Busman's Honeymoon, he's much more grounded. Now when he's brought into a case he is driven to discover who the murderer is and see justice done even though it grieved him to know the murderer faced hanging. The character aged and, during his relationship with Harriet Vane, 'grew up'. Which makes him all the more interesting. Edward Petherbridge carries the transition of the last three TV films off very well. And though we only have the audible book for Busman's Honeymoon your imagination can fill in how would appear if only they had presented it on film. Wonderful character and great cast. I loved Ian Carmichael and Edward Petherbridge in the role.

They're SO strapped for cash that they have a BAD servant. Oh dear. Because filling the coal bucket themselves is too impossible. It reminds me of another of Lincoln's quips. He met some puffed up military bod, Lincoln commented that he (Lincoln) needed to blacken his boots as they were scuffed. The puffy guy said, "I never blacken my own boots." in a snotty tone. Lincoln replied, "Whose boots do you blacken?"

When O was a little girl, my grandpapa belonged to the Cosmos Club. In those days, women were not allowed to walk into the front door, being required to enter via the Ladies' Entrance, and women were not allowed upstairs to see the library, unless there was a ball being given in the ballroom on the second floor. I went back to visit the Cosmos Club once as an adult, having joined a ladies' public speaking club that occasionally has a luncheon meeting and lecture at the Cosmos Club. Nowadays, they have gotten rid of that front door nonsense, and if you stop in to peek into the library, that really is paneled like the library in a Harvard House, you are likely to see a nine year old child sitting at one of the fancy desks, not dressed to the teeth in puffed sleeves and a girlish dress and matching ribbons on her pigtails, as my mother dressed me whenever I would meet my Grandfather there, but merely wearing jeans and a T-shirt, doing her homework as she waits for a family member in this modern generation.

Can you imagine having to tell your beloved brilliant ten year old granddaughter, the apple of your eye, who reads six years above grade level and who looks exactly like her grandmother, the love of your life...that she is NOT Good Enough to come in through the front door? Of course he changed that rule, just as he made the racial bar fall at the Cosmos Club, out of anger that they had snubbed his friend, Carl Rowan! When my grandfather wanted to change things, he didn't yammer on about it...he simply made it happen. He and Joe Kennedy, Sr., got FDR on the ballot in '32, working together, though of course there were many others who also made important contributions to the 1932 campaign. But when my grandfather wanted something to happen...it often did happen. He was good at that. I wish he'd lived long enough for me to have learned skills from him.

The curses are there and the innuendo. What are you going on about? It’s murder most foul, silly rabbit. The Queens English, bow ties and dry martinis don’t make it any less heinous.

One writer's error. If a person dies his bowels and bladder empty. This would have been noticed in the club. But then again, there wouldn't be a story, would there?

It is possible that the victim had voided just prior to his death, though that would have been an extraordinarily lucky coincidence for the party who would benefit by it (sorry to be vague, but trying not to spoil).

Lern englisch ... deutsche Übersetzungen haben Fehler ... und zwar nicht zu knapp. Manchmal wird der Sinn sogar um 180° gedreht ... und die ungebildeten Übersetzer wissen z.B. nicht dass "taking orders" (aus: Pride & Prejudice) "zum Priester ordiniert werden" heisst ... und nichts mit "Befehle entgegen nehmen" zu tun hat.

@@auntfanny3266 This was filmed back in the days when they were still using really big lights which made the sets rather warm. Having a REAL dead body - which also conforms to the specification of gender, looks and weight - under these circumstances would be "unsanitary". Full size puppets arent that easy/cheap to make either.
