Lordy, Lordy…Minder is Forty!
Admin: Happy Birthday to “Minder”. It debuted October 29, 1979 and went strong until March 1994. We here at the Appreciation are pretty much only concerned with the Chisholm episodes which ran sporadically from ’79 to ’88, but those 24 … Continue reading

Analysis of a Scene XLI: Chisholm Borrows Money
Admin: It is time for a Christmas themed Analysis of a Scene. While “Minder on the Orient Express” might not seem especially Christmassy, it actually is. Back in 1985 it aired on Christmas day as the highlight of ITV’s Christmas … Continue reading

Analysis of a Scene XXXIX: Cool Confident Chisholm
Time for a look at another one of our favorite scenes. This time we’ll be analyzing a brilliant DS Chisholm moment from Minder S02E12 “Caught in the Act, Fact.” (Recap here.) We particularly love this episode because Chisholm is very … Continue reading
Goodbye Sailor and Chisholm’s Moments of Win
Goodbye Sailor Minder S05E01 “Goodbye Sailor” aired 5 Sept. 1984. It is infamous for the raft gag which actually could have injured Patrick Malahide. The stunt is discussed in some detail in the Minder episode of “Drama Connections” recapped here. … Continue reading
Analysis of a Scene XXVI: Chisholm and British Telecom
RFodchuk and I have been going through a bit of Chisholm withdrawal, so we decided to revisit one of our favorite Chisholm moments. This is from “Life in the Fast Food Lane” (recapped here). Chisholm *knows* that Arthur Daley has … Continue reading
Patrick Malahide as DS Chisholm: Get Daley
Chisholm is typically a put-upon copper for whom nothing goes right. But, not always; sometimes he’s different. Get Daley (S04E10) shows a more confident, dare I say menacing, Chisholm. He almost, but not quite, acts a bit of a bully. … Continue reading

Something Neat XXIX: “Minder” Production Still
Stumbled across this online, quite by accident: it’s an amazingly clear production still from the “Minder” episode, “Life in the Fast Food Lane” (reviewed by Admin). I’m guessing it’s from the scene where Chisholm and Jones show up at Arthur’s … Continue reading
Analysis of a Scene XXI: Chisholm and Daley Outside the Courthouse
RFodchuk and I were very saddened to learn of the death of one of Britain’s most beloved actors, George Cole. He is probably best known for playing ‘spiv’ type characters such as Flash Harry and our Mr. Chisholm’s nemesis Arthur … Continue reading
DS Chisholm Page Update
The Cheerful Charlie Chisholm page in the Cherished Characters tab has been updated. It is all fresh and improved and hopefully gives DS Albert Chisholm his due.

Patrick Malahide as DS Chisholm: Waiting for Goddard
OY! It’s been a while since a Minder recap, and Waiting for Goddard is a good one. Poor Chisholm falls prey to a spiv and almost uncovers a quasi-kidnapping. At least he gets his tea and pie and yells “OY!” … Continue reading
