J. ‘Digger’ Doyle – Magnum, PI – The Cosy Crime Classics Podcast – Episode 22

Episode 22 of the Cosy Crime Classics Podcast sees us catch up with Thomas Magnum while he helps a big security company protect a new novel, as we take a look at J. ‘Digger’ Doyle, from Season 1 of Magnum, PI. In this episode, Gerry and Iain discuss the power of the written word.

This week, Magnum finds himself paired with ‘Digger’ Doyle (Erin Gray), a security expert from a specialist firm headed by David Clark (Stewart Moss) when Robin Masters’ latest work comes under threat from a group including an agent named Lisa (Jacqueline Ray). When TC and Rick get roped in and Higgins is abducted, matters take a surprising turn and Magnum must figure out whether Digger is on the level.

This episode was directed by Winrich Kolbe. The writer was again Donald P. Bellisario.
