There was a video produced of the first (Julia-free) episode.
Thanks to Alastair,
who sent me some info...
Hi, I can help a little with the Capital City reference in the TV section of your
Julia site. It must have been on earlier than 1990, I suspect 1987-89 - there were at
least two series, possibly three. The regulars included Douglas Hodge and Trevyn McDowell;
it was set in and around a dealing room in a London investment bank. I don't remember
Julia being in it, but I certainly didn't see all of them, and I don't think I've ever
seen them repeated elsewhere. I'd have noticed Julia if she'd been in one I saw, as I
was in the back row of the chorus of a production of "The Canterbury Tales" musical
which she appeared in during the summer of 1985 in Canterbury. Its not much, but it
may help.

Wexford/Ruth Rendell Mysteries: "Best
Man to Die" 1990
Click here for a clipping from a
British TV guide.
Wexford was just one of a bunch of TV detective
mystery things that dominated British TV in the
first half of the 1990s. He was a police
character based on books by Ruth Rendell.
This one was a three part adaptation that I saw
in 1999 thanks to the joys of digital
television.
Basically Julia's character is
the Mysterious Daughter who turns up alive and
well when everyone thinks that she's dead. She
hardly appears in part one or part three but gets
a fair amount of screen time in part two doing a
femme fatal thing.
The video is (or at least was) available for purchase on sites like Amazon UK.
