Morse collapses during a conference on Victorian crime and is admitted to hospital. To pass his time in bed, he reads a book about the famous Oxford Canal Murder of 1859.
Inspector Morse is the acclaimed British detective drama series based on novels by Colin Dexter, starring John Thaw as the cantankerous and complex Chief Inspector Morse, and Kevin Whately as his long-suffering sidekick Sergeant Lewis. Craftsmanship and moral complexity make this “whodunit” compelling television. On CUNY TV, five two-hour episodes culled from Series One (1987) and Series Five (1991) will be broadcast in one-hour slots over a period of ten weeks.
