That last one is more developed because I'm lifting ideas from two series I'm currently reading. Sergeant Tring(?) is a big man who wears brightly colored plaid suits, loves to eat which helps him get an in with the female staff. He's married and his wife loves to feed people too. But after reading about Sergeant Fox, I'm thinking That Carola Dunn read Ngaio Marsh.
I don't think Fox wears bright suits though.
The dynamic between Alleyn and Fox is different from Fletcher and Tring in the Allen is a little goofy and calls Fox nicknames. Brer Fox and Foxkin on the regular, but also after good food or delicious wine if he's really happy. I can't remember the exact words, but it was like prime rib.
My detective chief inspector will call his detective inspector "cheesecake" or other desserts.
But no matter the description, both Alleyn and Fletcher look to me like Jack Robinson, the detective in The Miss Fischer Mysteries (Australian TV, I can't wait for season to to be upon Netflix).
