Created by Harry Robertson and Brian Degas, the British series Virtual Murder took an intellectual approach to the standard cops-and-robbers business. The main character was criminal psychologist Dr. John Cornelius (Nicholas Clay), who relied upon brain rather than brawn and educated guesses rather than cold hard facts to solve all sorts of baffling murders. Also appearing was Kim Thomson as Cornelius' trusty aide, Samantha Valentine. The six 50-minute episodes of Virtual Murder were telecast from July 24 to August 28, 1992.
