That journo is well off tieing in Miles' modalism to his habit period though. Bloody hipsters.

He was off the junk for more than half a decade before his experiments with modalism and Kind of Blue. The Birth of Cool was not modal. Which I think the journo is trying to make out.

I've tried watching that Foyle's War a couple of times, everything seems set for a good series, the right era with great potential of historic driven plots and yet, I find it oh, so boring.

Arthur Daley does not do 'rumpled'.
He is a social climber and gets togged out in full country clobber in the episode where they have to reposess a bull. These clothes get covered in shite during the course of the programme.
A proper geezer.
Arthur English was one of the original TV spivs long before his 'Are You Being Served' appearances. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/obituariesarthur-english-1616221.html
