I can certainly remember Derrick being shown here in the Midlands a few years back, usually late at night. I don't know how much was lost in the English translation but it seemed pretty decent to me.
I'd love to see that, although it's probably not that bad. The Italian dub is hilarious, not because of the content/translation errors but because the Italian way of talking just doesn't fit the German lip movements. ;o)
I don't remember it being too awful, a lot of the words are the same or similar after all. It's the way the sentences are constructed that would be the stumbling block as far as I can see. Anyway it was a decent police drama :-) By the look of things (clothing, cars etc) the episodes shown here would have been from the early to mid Eighties.
