The Midsomer Murders race row is an example of Britain's over-sensitivity on matters of ethnicity, according to the award-winning writer who helped to create the show.
Anthony Horowitz, author of the best-selling Alex Rider novels, said it made perfect sense that villages in the fictional county of Midsomer should have no black faces.
He was responding to the comments of Brian True-May, executive producer of Midsomer Murders, who was suspended on Monday for claiming that the ITV1 detective drama was "the last bastion of Englishness" and asserting that ethnic minorities have no place in English villages.
