The creator of one of Britain’s most beloved police officers has died at the age of 86.
Colin Dexter wrote the Inspector Morse books and received an Order of the British Empire in 2000 for service to literature.
His series of 13 Morse novels, written between 1975 and 1999, were adapted for the long-running English TV series, which starred John Thaw.
Dexter worked closely behind the scenes of the show and later became a consultant on a sequel which ran for nine years.
Dexter passed away peacefully at his home in Oxford yesterday.  He was 86.
