Here's another reminder… Appointment with Death, is the last of the first-run Agatha Christie episodes featuring David Suchet as Hercule Poirot this summer. After tonight's showing, PBS Masterpiece Mystery! will be airing "encore" presentations of one more Poirot episode, followed by three "encore" presentations of Inspector Lewis, with Kevin Whately… who is absolutely fabulous in this role! If you missed those three episodes, I urge you to watch them (or record them) this summer. There will be one first-run Inspector Lewis episode on August 29. Terrific! I'm looking forward to it already!

Inspector Morse Shows…

January 28, 2009

The Inspector Morse (British) mystery series is based on Colin Dexter's wonderful series of books. My husband and I are both fans of Dexter's novels and the television shows. I believe I read some place that when  Colin Dexter was approached to make his mystery novels into a television series, he chose John Thaw to portray the very cerebral, very cultured, Oxford-educated Inspector Morse. What perfect casting! Kevin Whately is also perfectly cast as Morse's Sergeant Lewis.
