"Do you take the long road?" a gruff restaurant manager asks a hapless drifter, and thus is launched one of the serpentine mysteries featuring a 1930s sleuth by the name of Albert Campion, created by Margery Allingham. Look to the Lady centers around the attempted theft of a 1000-year-old golden chalice from the upper-class family entrusted with its care; along the way are woven in witchcraft, a vast criminal organization, strange rituals, and a murderous horse. Peter Davison, a former Doctor Who, stars as Campion, a bland-faced and genteel fellow with an almost ghoulish relish for crime. His interplay with his crusty manservant/assistant, Lugg (Brian Glover), a former burglar with an almost impenetrable Cockney accent, is the series' strongest element. The stories slip in and out of self-satire and seem to tweak the classic mystery genre, yet always stay firmly within its confines. --Bret Fetzer
