"This is Oxford, everything always means something in Latin."
_There's nothing faster than a fall from grace._
I love Lawrence Fox's character especially in this episode.
Rachael Stirling was also good.She is the daughter of the late Dame Diana Rigg.
This episode made me hate his character. But it's a very truthful depiction of religion and religious bigots.
@@annika5893Oh I see, so we of the Christian faith have to comply and accept your deviant lifestyles or else we are labeled bigots😂 Can't cherry pick Yahweh's laws to suit people's deviant lifestyle.
A bit heavy on the social message but gave Fox a chance to add some depth to his character.
The writing for these episodes is amazing. I especially liked this one, for a lot of reasons.
Glad you like them!
@@brittv6066 First rate - absolutely first rate! Never watched "Morse," but I think I'll have to dig those up!
better be careful...you'll fall in love with this series..
Loved Morse & now love Lewis just as much. Thanks for these uploads! 👍
Have you watched Endeavour?
I haven’t watched episodes of ‘Lewis’ for over two years … it’s changed. Wow! Good script, motivated actors.
At the end, it's almost like they have him reading a girlie magazine to clearly make the point that he is not gay.
The Lewis series is every bit as good as Morse, and in some ways more enjoyable. For example Morse's unrelenting dourness did wear a bit thin. This episode is one of the best of all the Lewises, brilliantly written, acted, and directed.
Kevin Whately was largely confined to playing an AngloIrish North Country "plod," a drab curtain against which the dour "home boy" Morse could shine. Lotta Cambridge commies in the Beeb, happy to make Oxford a center of depravity, etc., especially with all the churches. You're being played friends...
this chapter is masterpiece¡¡
No one does murder mysteries better than the British.
"Bertie, it's been a slice." That sounds like it came from an episode of "Jeeves & Wooster" with the very young, pre-House Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry. This was a lovely, twisty episode. Agatha Christie would have been charmed.
Undoubtedly the best hour I've spent watching any series and I've watched a few. Excellent!
L
I especially Loved this episode. It showcased how good of an actor Laurence Fox really is. Oh for the time when Actors where rated by there ability to make us believe in a better world and Singers for there ability to help us forget the one we where in.
These artists are still around. Look and support them!
May your words to Heaven ring, and to my post a contract bring!!!! (for script, for role to act, perhaps, but never, alas, to sing!!!)
@@jeanettesdaughter Thank you. Scripts, mss, published work, etc., all piling up in the Library of Congress and the Nat Library of Ireland. Too many "Weinsteins" in the USA, publishing, producing, and, indeed, academia! So it's now for the grandkids...but ah, Oxford!
Love the actress who plays the medical examiner..she was on midsummer murrrders
Fact..
That was a good episode. She is good here too. And wasn’t the vicar in the opening scenes here also in a reoccurring role in Dr. Martin episodes?
It took me half the episode to remember she wasn't Laura, now living in Midsomer lol
One of my favourite episodes 💖 thank you for uploading
I was stuck on Midsomer Murders until they all seemed the same... I'm loving Lewis. Thank you!
This was a particularly good episode... well done
can't believe i figured this one out so soon. thanks again.
You are welcome!
Only one that I ever figured out.
@@bovnycccoperalover3579 lol. yeah they don't make it easy do they? i've figured out a number of them but it was well near the end before it hit me. we've still got a bunch left though.
My 3rd one! I'm becoming a regular viewer..hope this is as good as #2..Happy Holidays!!!
What a great pair! Beautifully done. Thank you.
Thanks for posting.
You're welcome
The destruction at the beginning was a bit hard to swallow!
Die Beiden sind so süß 😂
P.S. In the end, every novel we read, movie we go to or every fictional detective series we watch on TV boils down to what Samuel Taylor Coleridge called "That willing suspension of disbelief, for the moment, that constitutes poetic faith."
Wow.
@@sgrannie9938 "It's twue! It's twue!"
Thank you.
I love this show the best
Quel drama
1:21:55 - Why are kissing scenes full of smacking, sucking sounds? Very annoying.
Aren't suicides always driven to it by something? Why is this a murder case?
its just a story , but even in ' real life' these 'protestors' are always so angry!!!
Like I said in a previous episode clip, I was in Oxford once. That was a long time ago.
And now we know why the chaos in our world.......
"Hathaway" walks strangely. His toes are pointed out and his gait is awkward. Why is it that when I watch these British shows I try to type and write in a more proper English manner?
Love Hathaway (Fox) & Lewis … great storyline & acting. But so sad about the political reminder 15 secs before the end of video on ‘Carbon footprint’….
Very few eyebrows in this one, I notice. Really a good episode, though, I loved it.
The best barrister is never in court 😮
I am torn between two thoughts: Crazy mental internal obsession and true love. To me there is a fine line between the two?
They couldn't have gotten someone with even a cursory knowledge of Irish to guide them in the pronunciation of 'Feardorcha'? (also a bit of a misnomer for a red haired lad)
OH! 1) the actor playing "DS Hathaway", in this show, Laurence Fox is NOT gay. I always wondered about that. He had been married, had 2 children; 2) His father is the actor James Fox, who appeared in one episode of "Lewis" in 2009, "Allegory of Love". His uncle is the actor Edward Fox. Hummppfff!!! Still, rather an odd duck, IMO.
Why did you think he was gay? And so what if he was?
@@ingvarhallstrom2306 cuz he's so odd. What if he was? If he was gay, then he'd be gay. That's what.
Magnificent 5 🌟☮️.
Deborah Findlay (playing Lady Hugh) had a long career as a Nasty Woman, from my limited vantage point in southern Colorado 😎 ~ 'we' met her as Sarah, the devilish wanton sister in the final(?) Jeremy Brett /Sherlock Holmes episode; then have watched her as murderess in a Poirot episode 🤣 and now an overtly religious anti-gay ("health and safety" (whatever)) Chancellor getting her head bashed in... Sorry, Debbie 🤣 🤣 I kind-of preferred this outcome 😎
Without the evil lady hairstyling, makeup, and suits, she likes the sweetest, gentlest earth mother.
I miss Morse. It is difficult to see Lewis alone. But I will get used to it
I think you'll find Lewis much better than Morse, Lewis is less grouchy than Morse and he doesn't hit on almost every female character he meets. The camaraderie bw Lewis and Hathaway is something to follow too.
Gay agenda even here....?!
Ian McNeice is truly grotesque
Does the Zoe character remind anybody else of Diana Rigg. She has Diana's eyes.
Rachael Stirling, the actress playing Zoe, is Diana Rigg's daughter.
Rachel has the eyes of her spectacularly beautiful mother, Diana Rigg.
Pretty obvious to me why not to James? I knew it at first glance
Now there’s some raw hate for you
“Make a film about why love is never wrong.” Tell that to the jilted wife/mother whose husband ran off with his latest crush. Stupid social messages devalue the merit of the cause. #eyeroll
Life Born of Fire (TV Episode 2008) - imdb 7.8 The suicide of Hathaway's old friend tests his relationship with Lewis as he must come to terms with ambivalence about his own sexual past.
E o meu Brasil tem que ser citado por uma tônica social! Só assim! Até parece que americanos e britânicos sabem a bandeira do Brasil, ou sua cultura! E, graças a Deus, no final, Hatawaya declarou não ser gay! Só faltava! Obrigada.
I guess the writers think the only way to create drama is to have Lewis and Hathaway investigate people they once had a history with - or are having a current relationship with -- but it's absolutely against the rules and would give defense attorneys ammunition to get their clients off... And this same old plot ploy really gets tiresome -- especially having just gone through it with 8 seasons of Morse.
Well it’s England. They do things differently across the pond. Relationships are everything over there and their prominence within the family, the town, one’s caste or class are considered normal never criminal. Slander or defamation of character are actionable in court and taken much more seriously there than here - Reputation being all. Something to be said for that as well as innocent until proven guilty ( that ought to be familiar!) and never guilty just by association, mate. Think it through. I’d have to say as a member of a lower caste that loyalty like that is hard to come by. Down here in the trenches we settle for: snitches get stitches. Bench your envious distaste or could that be a touch of xenophobia... 😉
@@jeanettesdaughter Bravo...sneers should always be put in their place.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇱🇷
I actually thought the person playing the character of Zoe was a man (because of the stature, but maybe that was on purpose) before I went to check on the cast 😄. My bad.
Surprised the trans mob have not tried to get this cancelled.
Not the Oxford I remember....And anyway, these storylines are very much akin to those of a U.S. drama rather than those usually associated with classic U.K. subtleties . What's next; Hathaway P.I?
It appears this series was backed in part by tv station WGBH, part of the non-profit Public Broadcasting System in the United States. PBS brings in several programs from the U.K., mainly BBC but some independent shows as well. There have been several co-productions done in this manner.
Even in Jeeves and Lewis you start to quickly see the "adaptations" to PBS liberals' American market. It's ok in proportion, but being an Hiberno-English lit genius in the USA, it's annoying. I don't see any cultural reciprocity, other than great English actors cast in the roles of butlers and maids in Ho'woods horrors.
Gotta be Zoey
This episode gave much consideration into writing a gay plot. I see no concern to include these people who are apart of our society, to be in a murder mystery. Once again, well done!!
WTH
😂🎉
I like Lewis, and most of the characters and certainly Pheloung's music, but there's a theme running through all the BBC murder mysteries and that is anti Catholicism, extended all Christian faiths as exemplified by Catholic symbolism and iconography in Protestant churches and Marian or other Christian images in the homes of nutjobs and murderers. It's taken them thirty years or so...this episode is one of the more blatant although Midsomer wins hands down for subliminal incitement to hatred at worst, disrespect at least, imo; even with "dishy" DS Ben Jones it's hard to watch sometimes...
Disappointed - absurd on every level. A consecrated church sold off by the vicar to be a nightclub; gays who are either screaming queens or muscle marys ... but worst of all, an impossible feat of plastic surgery. The actors deserved better - and so do the viewers.
Well, there is the "Limelight" in NY, formerly a church, then a nightclub and cocaine distribution center... beginning of the end of NY, but yes, "niche market" writing, kept afloat by great actors, and here I go again, Pheloung's music.
This bullshit, nobody cares if you're gay anymore, except for a very small amount, of small mined people. Fox is the best thing about this show, I like him on this show and I like him even more for his ideas off of this show, he's a real man.
Do you realise from which time this show is?!
Not true. People do care. The religious who in the US hold huge sway. Evangelical Christianity and it’s spread in Africa particularly is ruining the lives of many and corrupting the personalities of the rest. These are obsessed with sexuality, the most misogynist and the most condemnatory and least likely to practice kindness among the Christians. Christ is nowhere in their teachings; it’s all malice and wrath against homosexuality. People are still fired, shunned and killed because of it. Triggered much⁉️
You can't cherry pick Yahweh's laws to suit people's deviant lifestyle.
Despicable episode.
Welcome to your own opinion ....those who really value the arts will voice their own as well.
what a stupid plot.
Woke crap episode about the deviants. The Christian faith will not bend or comply to deviants.
