Lewis

[lottiejenkins]

I was an avid Morse fan and have watched all the episodes of Lewis. What annoys me is that actors who played roles in Morse turn up in different roles in Lewis. The ones that i can remember in both so far ar Simon Callow, Robert Hardy and Diana Quick.

I know! - it just gets so 'Ang on, wasn't he the evil so and so'. Not only that but we get 'incomers' from other detective dramas - last week Linley and this week both Bloodiel, sorry, Dalziel, and Strickland..... why not just have one communal programme with a rota of visiting thesps adding to their pension plans?

Plus - the plot - as the Radio Times said, a mixture of cliches. And unlike the great Morse episodes you just don't care whodunnit. All of them are rather cardboard.

Bellissima and lottie - I haven't watched the last episode yet but last week I got totally confused!!

And it doesn't "feel" the same as Morse, which of course is because it doesn't have the late great John Thaw in it.

I just watch it for the pretty views [shallow]

knock - it was rather more comprehensible than last week's, if not particularly credible, but just rather soulless (despite all the confession stuff!).

Oh - I loved it. Ah well.

Like Coco, I watch it for the views. And to play spot-the-college.

What I found confusing on Sunday was that telly detective Dalziel was now playing a University porter.

Swan - that confuses me a lot with Lewis and Midsomer there's people who were other people and I'm never sure who they're supposed to be lol

I love it.
It´s TV-not real-they are actors playing characters who have also played different characters!

I think it´s a great tribute that actors who have been in Morse are also in this.

diddl - I agree. Loved Morse.

I also loved Morse, although looking back I think some of the storylines did get a bit silly.

But I´m also enjoying this-I think the Lewis & Hathaway characters work really well together.
