Constable Renfield Turnbull is a fictional character in the television series Due South. He is a constable of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police who works in the Canadian Consulate in the American city of Chicago, Illinois. The character is portrayed by Dean McDermott.
Turnbull acts as comic relief and is a caricature of Fraser, the series' main character.
Turnbull is not clever and has a tendency to speak his mind. He is frequently seen doing office tasks and answering the phone. He also does guard duty outside the consulate. Turnbull models himself on Fraser,[1] but only ever accomplishes a superficial likeness.[2]
Turnbull enjoys country music. He likes drawing, painting and cooking, and is a curling fan. Turnbull is a monarchist.[3]
Fans have deduced from Turnbull's uniform that he is between 24 and 29 years old when he first appears in the programme.[4]
