- Quotes
Blanche Copley-Barnes: [after identifying her husband's umbrella] Well, do we make the proverbial noises now?
Chief Inspector Morse: I'm sorry?
Blanche Copley-Barnes: Well aren't we supposed to say "would you like a drink?" so you can say "not while I'm on duty" then I provide tea instead?
Detective Sergeant Lewis: Tea would go down nicely...
Chief Inspector Morse: [interrupting Lewis abruptly] We don't have time, I'm afraid.

As the episode develops you begin putting the pieces together, you begin to see why each character is behaving in the strange, and subdued ways that they are.
I don't put this one on too often, as I find it almost too upsetting to watch, it is a particularly dark story, that said, it is amazingly good.
Many shocking moments throughout, including the shocking scene at the Church.
It does have a lighter side, Lewis going on about the vomit all the time is very funny, as is Morse's uncomfortable reaction each time.
The acting is absolutely incredible, it's funny, you watch a drama series from 2020 or 2021, and the acting is good, you watch this Morse, and the acting is sensational, Cheryl Campbell, Barbara Leigh Hunt and Geoffrey Palmer are all incredible, has acting gone backwards, or was this just particularly good?
Outstanding, 10/10.
