Daniel Scott is a Detective Sergeant who joined CID after DS [[Gavin Troy]]'s transfer. City boy Scott was reluctant at first to be working in Midsomer with [[Tom Barnaby]], but soon warmed up to the job, despite itching to get back to London. He felt his transfer to Midsomer was punishment, so he was eager to prove himself a good detective. He is portrayed by [[John Hopkins]] and is not an original character in Caroline Graham's books. |
