Scotland’s greatest TV cops ranked – and it’s not Taggart
A ranked list of notable Scottish television police characters highlights both classic and contemporary figures from crime dramas and comedies. Supercop tops the list for his enduring comedic appeal, followed by Taggart for its iconic status. Notable entries include Karen Pirie, Hamish Macbeth, Rebus, Jimmy Perez, and Monica Kennedy, with praise for both character portrayals and their adaptations.
