A bit like the soaps on TV where all the boiler suits worn always look
brand new and immaculate regardless of whether they have just serviced
the tractor/cat/mucked out the pigs etc.

when they do try and make actors look dirty, it's about as convincing as substituting a small toy car for a real one.

Not always, some years ago I could see that mechanics at a pit lane
suspected of creating a fire were all in grease streaked clothing with the
fictitious team name on it or rather them. That was CSI.

That is a little unfair, unless something has changed in the last 14 or so
years, in which case I could not think why.
I'm told some of the bodies in Midsummer murders look slightly, ahem
grubby.

I note that many of the "staff" in CSI turn up at a crime scene full of
core blood and bodily fluids dressed up in expensive designer gear,
especially in the Miami franchise. Sometimes the script hints that being
a CSI operative is not a well paid job.

Standard fair for TV. Everyone always has enough money to go to the pub,
etc. Unless the script says they have a gambling habit or whatever. ;-)

They don’t actually show any of the corpses in Midsomer Murders.
