Your time is greatly appreciated. My P.I.P concerns crime fiction as entertainment and in particular, the forensic science aspect of it.
Wikipedia defines crime fiction as a genre of fiction that deals with crimes, their detection, criminals, and their motives. It is usually distinguished from mainstream fiction and other genres such as science fiction or historical fiction, but boundaries can be, and indeed are, blurred. It has several sub-genres, including detective fiction (including the whodunnit), legal thriller, courtroom drama, and hard-boiled fiction.

Firstly, some information about yourself:

1. Are you

a) Male
b) Female

2. Age group
a) 13 – 17
b) 18 – 29
c) 30 – 39
d) 40 – 49
e) 50 – 59

c) Both
d) Neither

5. Do you enjoy crime television programmes that involve forensic science?
a) Yes
b) No

6. Do you enjoy these more than normal crime fiction programs?
a) Yes

7. How many hours of crime fiction do you watch every week?

8. Of these television programmes currently on television, which do you enjoy? (choose as many as appropriate)

d) Cold Case
e) Body of Evidence
f) Post Mortem
g) Crossing Jordan
h) NYPD Blue
i) Blue Heelers
