Reply With QuoteIt sounds like the 2003 BBC series Strange.
My brother's partner asks:- "I'm trying to remember the name of a television programme which I think was shown sometime in the 1990s. It was about a guy that lived in an old church building (I think) and he investigated supernatural mysteries. He had a girlfriend, she was a nurse and she lived in a flat with her son. Her son was intuitive to supernatural goings on. I can't remember the actor's name but he was quite tall with curly hair and quite a deep voice (he might have been Irish but I'm not certain)."
All help gratefully received as ever

Possibly Jonathan Creek? Alan Davies fits the bill although he lived in a windmill not a church. Caroline Quentin was his 'girlfriend' and she played a nurse in Men Behaving Badly.
One or two of the episodes were quite supernatural.
You guys are awesome - take the rest of the day off.
P.
Was that a good series?
It's a new one on me but it does sound interesting.

Yes, very good and the nurse was played by Samantha Janus who, I now notice, has taken to calling herself Samantha Womack!
Thanks. I'm going to get it.
Is it available on DVD?
I recall the BBC fecked about with it at the time of broadcast - not repeating the pilot, changing the broadcast times at short notice and so on. I enjoyed it but eventually the powers that be get their own way.
It's listed on Ioffer. (Yes, I know...)

That'll be because she fairly recently married Mark Womack.name='cully']Yes, very good and the nurse was played by Samantha Janus who, I now notice, has taken to calling herself Samantha Womack!
Richard Coyle (Coupling) played John Strange - and the late, great Ian Richardson was also in it.
It was a good series - it would have had to be to make me watch Janus/Womack!
