Hathaway's expression of disgust at the mention of Harvard at 19:01, priceless.
@Morgrim ... or even "that fake Cambridge" ...
Bar…he thought his alma mater to be used falsely by its cousin in the US is on par with blasphemy!
And Voss's mention of the crummy neighborhoods he lived in is good too; Massachusetts is supposed to be the worst of the fifty states for housing.
Hey! Dont talk about our Hahvahd like that. I think he was diappointed, thought he found a fellow Cambridge man.
@@MsLogjam excuse me!? What is that suppose to mean? Mass worst in housing of 50 States? What housing? College student housing? Professor housing? People in general housing? We have housing all over, always bldg more. Granted I wouldnt live in Cambrudge. I cant even stand going there when I have to. I get an anxiety attack north of the river. The Charles River, named for your Charles II.
"Toffee-nosed prat." Now there's an insult.
Love this series almost as much as Morse. No higher praise. Thank you for posting. It means so much.
Our pleasure!
Thank you Brit TV. I love you . Please stay in you tube. I need you.your better entertainment.
19:00 +/- The way Hathaway's face falls when Voss says "Cambridge, Massachusetts" . . . . toooooooooooo fun-ny! SUCH disappointment!🤣
I’m in love with Sgt. Hathaway… he is perfect in every way possible
Love Laurence Fox in this series. He says so much with just one quirky look.
Does he not!
He is just….. perfection
Anna Chancellor is always a beauty with excellent acting expressions.
I would like to live within this show. Minus the murders, I think it would be quite lovely because of the aesthetics, mood, and Oxford scenery.
Yeah Oxford is something. I was there once.
my all time favorite show
Great series. thank-you for sharing
The acrobatics : 😍 I love them. Nice beginning of a great video 👍✅❤️these series are just wonderful. Thank you for sharing 🙏
I've been watching these for years and never guessed an ending yet.Never will !!!
You are not watching, you are sleeping
"Life Born of Fire" had the best and most unexpected ending, I thought.
Morse is like that as well, the other being Midsomer Murders.
Terrific episode! Lewis and Hathaway back on track after some dodgy detours.
Thanks so much for posting.
Our pleasure!
Hathaway reminds me of a cricket, the way he walks.
Great show. Thank You
Many, here, in the comments may not have been around/remember the attacks during the 80s back and forth between the IRA and the British govt…endless destruction and some carnage (I don’t recall the numbers, also I didn’t live anywhere near) kids and adults. Of course I recommend the dvd set (which I have) because there are so many episodes (36 in total) that are not uploaded for copyright reasons. Great series!
I'm so glad your back .
the best part of this series is the music
This was a wonderful episode. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Very nice refernece to the Mozart Clarinet Quintet. I played 2nd violin. Chamber music is truly a passion fulfilled.
Great episode. Thank You.
Thank you for these.
Great series 👌👍👏 Congratulations 🎊
Beautiful episode
Love Hathaway....best Sgt ever.
"Shaken not Sturde"😅😂😅
Cherie Lunghi Here 20 Years after The Manageress 👍👍
Greate series thank you
49:45 Ah, shades of W.C. Fields: "Stopped into Philadelphia the other day, but it was closed."
The chess match at last minutes was fun...
Lol. A flash of Marmite - presumably to be used on toast - during the intro. I used to ask my daughter to bring back Marmite when she was studying in Exeter.
Every time I see Oxford Uni, the buildings of Oxford U, I think of Brideshead Revisited, Charles' rooms and Sebastian Flyte strolling through an archway.
Lewis: Season 5. Episode 4. "Gift of Promise". Sunday - November 13 - 2022.
"isn't that a rather lazy assumption"....LOL, Hathaway, really...
I'm still sad Fox left acting for other career choices. His brotha is doing well on Sanditon.
❤
Oh I thought Voss was going to be Zoey's real father.
Hey! I never once “den[ied] the obvious”!! What’s that got to do with it, lol! 🧐 😁
I visited London in April 1996 for a legal, informal "telecom arbitration working group" and randomly chose a less expensive hotel/lodge (somewhere about 7 blocks away eastward, from Trafalgar Square). Somehow I hit it off with the blonde, Irish Manager, in that slow season; she invited me to 'go Dutch' for dinner at one of her fave restaurants. (hang on) We walked a circuitous route back to the hotel; as we journeyed, she asked me if I remember the incident, where "some poor sod" carrying his presumedly IRA bomb, on the upper deck of an empty double-decker bus, blew himself up when the bus driver rounded a corner and hit a pothole? (long question) I had remembered that incident, earlier that year. ~ and she recounted how she had been dating an English London Constable at that time; they'd finished dinner out (same restaurant? That I don't remember), and ~ walked where we strolled, and ~ that bus had passed them, rounded that next corner, and blew up(!!!). ==== Her recounting this concluded with the two of them running towards the burning bus, and him stopping 'tout de suite' To shout "get out of here! Now! Go home!" ~ to which she objected; but he continued "you're Irish! They'll think you know something... Get OUT of here!" (paraphrased) ==== This is one of the very few stories I've found, dealing with 'the troubles' ~ there's a "Poirot" episode that fantasizes the kidnapping of a Prime Minister... Wicked twists towards the true culprit.🤔💭
Damn it 😜😜 I'm going to watch it again, straight away ~ I'm too confused already after it ended...
I was in London with my parents one time when I was a kid. We stayed at the Piccadilly Hotel in Piccadilly Circus. I was standing on the corner by the Underground entrance and standing by the large cement mailbox they have over there. My parents finally came and then we went on down to a Leicester Square. About an hour after standing there by that mailbox, it blew up from an IRA bomb. I ever got near another mailbox again. Im not sure what year it was, which trip it was.
Of course Voss ending up at Harvard should have been pointing to something Irish in his background.
So did Voss kill Andrea and Suskin? As well as slipped Elmo LSD?
1:26:34 They were in the same city all these years and never chanced to meet each other before this? Possible, but still strange, though.
I was under the impression "Professor Voss" had recently arrived in Oxford from Cambridge, Massachusetts. He would've met "Mrs Suskin" sooner or later.
Holding people against their will anything is liable to happen. Nothing loves a cage but a bird brain!
56:45 Made it all the way here and then Lewis jumps down James' throat over nothing.
Well, there’s more to the story of Ireland than depicted in this episode Brit TV. There were atrocities on both sides as there always are in any Civil War. Henry VIII set it off ! Give us a Hathaway plot going all the way back to the truly mad King.
Started when the British 1st went over to Ireland and basically took everything and then enslaved all the Irish people. I'm Irish, English, Welsh, Scottish, and Dutch. Most Irish are descendants of Vikings. It was the Vikings that started the Irish cities. The Romans never went to Ireland although they knew it was there.
@@aspenrebel The Irish went to SCOTLAND , The Scots came from Ireland and took over the country. You could read some early history.. It's interesting. Henry VIII has nothing to do with it. His family were Welsh and he gave up the Norman and Angevin possessions on the continent what is now France since he did not inherit them . He wanted to keep his army at home.
@@mavisemberson8737 Where did I say anything about Irish and Scotland? Where did I say anything about Henry VIII.? I think you want to reply to the OP.
Oh, I almost forgot the endless attacks between the PLO and Israel. In the days of the former USSR the PLO was armed to the teeth against their common (percived) enemy, Israel. Things never change…
English are so weird. A shrimp sandwich in a plastic pkg. I remember when I was over there one time. They had corn kernals in tuna sandwich in a plastic pkg. Why?
Another episode where they lazily use Irish language/names as a plot device without basic research. "Knife-box" in Irish wouldn't be "scian bosca" which is a literal word- for- word translation of the English. It's "bosca na scine".
great episode but shame about the cliched irish characters and cliched spoken lines.
I think it's similar in Scots Gaelic, where the receptacle comes 1st I.e box of the knife- bocsa na sgian
