“Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious. I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now on I’ll be mad.”
There were 33 episodes of Inspector Morse starring John Thaw and Kevin Whately. The writer of the Morse novels, Colin Dexter, appeared in Almost All 33 episodes. Once we knew that he was “doing a Hitchcock” the series had an extra dimension called ….WHERE IS COLIN? :o)
OMG. I missed the Tennyson bit? And he is my homie. Bad. Head Hung/Hanged in SHAME :o( From the Guardian Newspaper : We have recently pointed you at a graphic novel about the history of puzzles and at the first novel by Guardian setter Picaroon, each of which remains heavily recommended. Time for a peek at a golden-age […]
For once, the TV series led me to the books. I adore John Thaw and Kevin Whately and this whole series. I’ve also read all of Colin Dexter’s books. This is the first book and the first programme. “The Dead of Jericho” is the first instalment of the Inspector Morse TV series starring John Thaw and Kevin Whately (as Detective Sergeant Lewis). Colin Dexter also […]
If there is just ONE SINGLE thing that can turn me from a Baconian to an Oxfordian it is THIS… GB 14th March 2019 : Cathars/Starfort/Oxford And Inspector Morse. And Lewis. And AW.

They were full of allegory/myth/legend/music/literature/language/puzzles/love/life/betrayal/wonder etc After watching the wonderful Kevin Whately video below, I wanted to re-watch divine, late John Thaw. Inspector Morse. The Masonic Mysteries. I can’t afford to buy the full DVD boxset right now. I […]

Yes. I know. He wasn’t even fashionable when he was at the height of his career. Maybe that’s why that little imp in me chose him as MY champion in the Lower 6th Common Room Battle of the Musicians. I still, to this day, have a great fondness for his music. And – Deepest of […]
There are MANY reasons why I LOVE this Lewis episode. Rewind. Repeat. Inspector Morse. John Thaw. Colin Dexter. Brilliant Writers. Oxford. Kevin Whately. Geordies. LAURENCE FOX. Music. Inklings.

“Do not imagine that if you meet a really humble man he will be what most people call ‘humble’ nowadays: he will not be a sort of greasy, smarmy person, who is always telling you that, of course, he is nobody. Probably all you will think about him is that he seemed a cheerful, intelligent […]
I adore this episode of Morse. And Patricia Hodge – who is beautiful but not in a “classic” way. And who was born in Lincolnshire ! Clueage – the computer reveals ALL!
