Question about British TV police series Inspector Barnaby and Inspector Frost?

Question

Are these shows still running on British TV? We have them where i live in France and i really like them both and wondered how long each of the series ran for.

Answer 1

The answerer above me has covered all the Inspector Frosts, as for Inspector Barnaby, you must be thinking of Midsummer Murder, with John Nettles as Inspector Barnaby? yep thats still running, we've just had a new series here x

Answer 2

Frost is constantly repeated and I'm not sure about Barnaby as I never watch it.

Answer 3

Midsomer Murders has been going since 1997, and is still going strong.

We have just seen a new series.

The amount of dead bodies they have in Midsomer, must mean the village is almost deserted by now!

A Touch of Frost hasn't had a new series this year, but they do keep showing repeats.
