Oh yup, fan of all of the above, especially Reg Hill. The Dalziel & Pascoe books are streets ahead of the tv versions.
I also really like Stephen Booth's 'Cooper & Fry' books - another northern cop duo. My current fave detective is Lindsey Davis' 'Falco' series. It's set in Ancient Rome but very modern and with a great touch of humour as well as serious cases.
Val McDermid also writes superb literary crime fiction but it's right on the limit of what I can stomach in terms of disturbing gruesomeness  Well worth a look for the non-squeamish though.
