Speaking about the success of the show, Doctor Who actor John said: "Without such amazing writing behind it, this would be just another generic cop show," he said. "But because of the source material – I am also thinking of the Frost books, Morse books – it's great to have that wealth of material to draw on.
"To read the books and get inside the head of my character has been a wonderful experience. The books are hugely successful, so it's up to us not mess it up."
