Due South
Character Sketches


Listed below are non-fiction character sketches of all the regular (and important guest) characters from Due South. They're designed to give a basic idea of the characters' backgrounds, as well as to assist writers with answers to nit-picky questions.

All information is cannon: in other words, it was derived either directly off the TV screen or in a few instances, from interviews with cast or crew.

Please be aware that third and (and for European/Canadian fans) fourth season information has been included in these sketches, so you may very well encounter 'spoilers.'

If you notice any errors, or have new information to add, please contact JRD 203@aol.com.
