We all love a good TV Detective. And with the rise of hit murder-focused Netflix documentaries, the world of crime couldn’t be even more interesting (or so the binge-statistics reveal, anyway). Which means you need the best detectives on the case.

TV has given us a wide selection of the greatest detectives of all time. Whether it’s moody and blunt, chirpy and friendly, aggressive and wild or all of the above – it’s safe to say that we’ve seen a lot of impressive detection on our TV over the years. And we all have our favourites.

Not to mention the memorable catchphrases that have formed from some of the best detective dramas of all time. Because are you really a detective without a catchphrase? And sometimes it’s even the sidekicks who steal the limelight from the main stars, as no detective is complete without his trusty sidekick in toe.

The world of science and detection has progressed a long way over the years. Do you prefer your sleuths to be tracking footprints in a Victorian street? Or do you prefer a high-tech lab with the best forensic team at instant disposal?

Take our quiz and let’s find out what kind of TV detective you would be!
