Dangerfield (BBC-1 1995-1999, Nigel Le Vaillant, Amanda Redman)

Published

on


Medical Drama series Dangerfield told the cases of a busy police surgeon, initially Paul Dangerfield a widower with a teenage son and daughter. Following the departure of Le Vaillant in 1997 Nigel Havers took over as single Jonathan Paige.

When the show started Le Vaillant was one of TV’s hot properties and this show suffered quite a bit at the hands of the critics mainly down to its wanting to appeal to all markets. The only thing the doctor didn’t do was heal sick animals!

As the series went on too it added a few more soapy type elements and focused a bit less on the police work, to the detriment of the feel of the show.
