![]() ![]() Lewis and I are finishing both our tenure folks, this will be also my last review for Amazon. I am sure if Our " Morse fella " is floating in the heavens above at the time this series stopped filming on the Lewis set, he would be saying 10 thumbs up and a hearty hurray. The journey was extremely nice to start with these chaps, and so it goes that, as it was with C/Inspector Morse. What I am left with is that Lewis series leaves us on the highest note that one could hope for. ![]() I make a living from music, dare I also say that the soundtrack is implicitly well one and timed, this is Barrington's ( the composer behind Morse and Lewis sound tracks ) best work ever ! I am stating a lot here because John Thaw was on another playing field where acting was, but he is no longer with us. Season 7 and this last Season from the Lewis story lines have that feel and magic that Inspector Morse had, at least at the same level. Lewis investigates the garroting of an aging Oxford don planning an Wagnerian festival and discovers a tenuous connection to his former boss, Inspector Morse. Without giving anything away, I was made to think that even from the get go as I started this series, that here we had simply something just better than C/Inspector Morse. The film making behind these stories is set on near high definition recording plateau. Even from the get go, all actors are in real sync and synergy with one another and dare I say at a very high level. Unlike the first new "Lewis," the solution to the crime in "Vipers" is brilliant, made even more enjoyable because we see several high-riders deservedly unhorsed.The moment this series starts, for those that care about these things, one will notice a cinematography that is beguiling beautiful, then comes the story lines and the acting between all actors that may be the best I have seen. These men and other characters turn out to have more in common than first meets the eye. The second of the new "Lewis" mysteries is even better plotted than "Soul of Genius." "A Generation of Vipers" focuses on the death of a young feminist scholar named Miranda Thornton ( Julie Cox) who tapes a video for a matchmaking service, only to have the video show up on a local tattler website called the Barker.Īs Lewis and Hathaway try to figure out if Miranda's death was a suicide or murder, they find themselves confronting a number of unsavory characters, including the arrogant mastermind ( Daniel Lapaine) behind the Barker and an equally arrogant developer ( Toby Stephens).

No matter, though, because the real pleasure of this episode is its focus on Hathaway. The murder is credibly complex, although the solution feels a bit over-thought. Conor Hawes ( Alex Jennings) two arty, narcissistic students who've named themselves after characters in "Pulp Fiction" ( Oliver Johnstone and Daisy May as Vincent Vega and Mia Wallace) a self-styled Miss Marple named Michelle Marba ( Celia Imrie) and the young botanist who discovered the body, Liz Nash (Nadine Lewington). Setting out to solve the murder brings Lewis and Hathaway to interview Hawes' arrogant brother, the Rev. The body is that of a loner named Murray Hawes, who had been sent to Oxford at 15 and became an English professor obsessed with solving the riddle of Carroll's nonsense poem "The Hunting of the Snark." Hawes was so singularly determined to solve the riddle, he paid an enormous sum to obtain at auction an archival copy of the poem, annotated by the author. bulldozing through whatever scheduled episode of Inspector Wexford or The Bill was.
