The Indelible Stain
One 90-minute episode
A controversial American academic is found strangled after a guest lecture at Oxford, leading Lewis and Hathaway to narrow down a list of motives that includes politics, ambition and vengeance, in order to find their culprit.
Well, at least after watching the first episode I can state that I didn't fall asleep. Lewis was a spear carrier and just isn't that interesting a character - Hathaway is more interesting to me. I liked the ENDEAVOR episode some weeks back about the early Morse a lot more . . .
