Hazell (1978–80) and the disappearing detective
This article considers links between 1970s British television and male-oriented detective fiction. It takes as its focus the eponymous protagonist of Thames Television’s Hazell (1978–80), whose first incarnation, in the ‘P. B. Yuill’ novel Hazell Plays Solomon , dates back to 1974.
