It is bittersweet to come to the end of the BBC radio series of McLevy. Bittersweet because at least, David Ashton has McLevy novels as well as Jean Brash novels. So that's good. But this series is such a joy. The casting is well done - Brian Cox as McLevy and Siobhan Redmond as Jean Brash led a cast that includes David Ashton himself. The mysteries are interesting. There is even a wonderful sense of place.
This is a great series and well worth listening to.
