Starring: Michael Kitchen, Anthony Howell, Honeysuckle Weeks
Factual error: Foyle is subordinate to an Assistant Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, but Hastings had its own force (merged with other Sussex forces 1943-47) and the Met had no jurisdiction outside London.
Factual error: Sergeant Brooks calls Det Sgt Milner "Sir" but they are of equal rank.
Factual error: Foyle is a Chief Superintendent. But the series is set during the Second World War and the rank was not introduced until 1949.
DCS Christopher Foyle: The uniform suits you.
Andrew Foyle: Thanks. I wish I could say the same about your dressing gown.
Trivia: The fuel station features metal miniblinds in several scenes. These did not become available until the early 1940s and would aluminium be diverted from airplane production to blinds?
