Fictional detectives quiz
Below is a list of 15 fictional detectives who have been portrayed in TV series or in movie franchises. Your challenge is to identify the name of the TV series or film franchise in which they appear and the actor or actress who starred in that part. In some cases there have been more than one actor or actress playing the part – in which case, you get a point for naming either or any one of them. So, 30 points maximum available. No use of reference material or the internet of course to ensure fair play. Good luck.
