In the program the young Morse was on his todd a lot - it was very good, he played it well - very moody! :rolleyes: he probably won't be with Lewis as cops don't work with the same people for 40 years! :)

No Lewis - think he'd probably have been too young to have been in the police then as he is a bit younger than Morse!

Max the pathologist was one of the characters shown though...:)

Yeah, they've managed to find the one street in Bury which hasn't been ruined by 60s planners or that Rock thing they have now. But I thought it was meant to be set in Oldham?

Plus, Morse will never meet Lewis in the new prequel. He met him for the first time in the first episode of the original Morse in 1987. But I hope his boss Chief Superintendent Strange turns up at some point.
 
I think James Grout is the best actor in it but I'm afraid he's getting on a bit (84) he was in Juliet Bravo

Yes he played misogynist Div. Supt. Albert Hallam. All 6 series box sets available in Lancashire libraries.
 
New series of Lewis starts soon - I like that, a worthy successor to Morse.
 
I prefer Lewis - don't have to endure the opera singers that sometimes appeared in Morse.

I remember watching it but I don't remember any content, I mean plots! Also there was "Z cars!" :rolleyes: They do - if you tried watching it now you'd find it terribly slow I'd think!

Morse and Lewis get down with the kids lol :) at a Rave!.......................... Beats Opera. :do-one:

Yeah, this episode was directed by Danny 'Slumdog Millionaire' Boyle. Which shows the the quality people who worked on the show. He directed probably the best Morse episode of all as well 'Masonic Mysteries'.

Lewis is a fitting sequel. But it's a bit like Christmas without the turkey. It's OK but something's missing. Plus I'm a bit uneasy with the change in Lewis's character to make him more morose. I know this is down to his wife passing away etc but in the original series he was more of a 'happy go lucky' counterpoint to the more serious, pretentious Morse.

To be honest ToffeeGuy I think Laurence Fox helps make Lewis watchable, think he's a better foil for Lewis than Lewis was for Morse
