Rosemary and Thyme is the name of a British detective series, on the cozy side. Two women who have a gardening firm solve crimes they encounter as they pursue landscaping gigs. The show ran from 2003 to 2007. Take as an example the episode titled "The Italian Rapscallion."
It first aired November 5, 2004, and is described this way: "A visit to Giardini Tremonti results in the death of Janice Alexander; retired foreign office diplomat Sir Basil Slavinski is also found dead." That episode is solved because Rosemary Boxer, a former academic, recalls a cat she once had, named Joseph. When Rosemary sees a cat sleeping on a car hood, she realizes the car had been driven, though the culprit said he had not been out. The warm hood, a feline attraction, was a clue.
New Tricks, another wonderful British detective show, had a similar plot event.
