    Columbo's beaten up old car was a 1959 Peugeot 403 Convertible. An unusual choice, but I guess ideal for an unconventional detective.
    Yes I know also one episode where he visited a drop in centre,where a nun greeted him oh come on in from the cold sir,have some food with us and oh you could do with a new coat badly oh I think we might have one for you and just your size,she said all this before he could explain who he was,it was funny

        Does anyone remember an episode with that guy from the Man from Uncle as the bad guy where they spent 75% of the episode wandering around small sailing boats? Columbo spent a full five minutes spelling things out with boat stencil letters. I think everyone involved in that episode was as high as the dickens.

          If they ever rebooted Columbo, and let's face it they will, I'd put Mark Ruffalo's name on the table

                On saturday we watched Columbo it was one of his earliest crimes probably 1968 he looked so young compared with what we are used to, his suit and mac looked brand new lol and his hair had been cut maybe it was his first ever episode.The intro was a phsycadelic theme and in technicolour,I hadnt seen this episode before,I hope they show more of the early ones it was really good.

                  It was the original pilot movie you saw: Prescription For Murder (1968).

                      I don't think any other actor could match Peter Falk in the role of Columbo
                      sigpic
                      Do you really believe the other side without provocation would launch so many ICBM's, subs and ships knowing that we would have no option to launch as well? It would break our MAD Treaty (Mutually Assured Destruction) not to mention the end of the world as we know it.

                          I adore Columbo.
                          The one episode that comes to mind is the one in which the villain leaves subliminal messages in a film.
                          Also, on occasions Columbo orders a mexican chilli. Thats it, I go to Tesco to purchase mexican chilli and crackers.

                            ...
                            The one where the victim eats salty caviar, gets very thirsty, leaves the screening of some advert (with the subliminal message); the narrator plays a recording, so he can go out and shoot the victim, while people think he's still narrating.

                              This was the episode with Robert culp as the killer. Has anybody noticed the running theme of "nick nack paddy wack" throughout the show? usuallly within the incidental music but often Columbo himself whistling it.
