I’m rewatching *again* since I finally watched Inspector Morse, and I wanted to see any Easter eggs - in the first couple of episodes there are several, but I think they diminish as the series comes into its own. Laurence Fox is an ass but Hathaway is so good.

Ella Bruccoleri also had a part in an episode of All Creatures Great and Small from last year IIRC. I’m watching Inspector Morse for the first time, and I’m up to the final season/series. In an ep that was released in 1997, Ben Caplan (Chummy’s Peter) has a couple of lines as a bartender. It was a very small part, but I recognized him right away.

I remember that episode, but not which season it was in. IIRC Trixie gave her heck for not wearing support stockings!

My mother’s older brother drowned in a lake in Ontario cottage country when he was 17 and she was younger than ten - this was back in the 1940s. When I was growing up, she was always so anxious when I was at the beach or a swimming pool. I remember when I was growing up, our neighbours had a swimming pool, and even if they invited me over to swim I couldn’t go unless my father or (8 yrs older than me) brother were with me. And the neighbours were a police officer and an ER nurse! But after I had my own children I completely understood why she was so anxious.

I only know about the lilo because I heard it on Coronation Street once and I had no clue what the eff a lilo was 😄 I have Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy to thank for teaching me about biros!

I couldn’t believe that the writers would actually have a character using the r-word (r*tard). I thought everyone knew how offensive that word is - it made me really angry 🤬

I’m doing a rewatch - first time I watched it was about five years ago - and I’m on s5 e2 and I see Arthur from Peaky Fucking Blinders! (I always call him Arfur 😄)

I’ve enjoyed the last two episodes much more than the Miss Harbottle ep. I had to laugh when Paul Copley turned up as a clinic customer - he’s one of those English actors who seems to be in every show! I’ve seen him in Downton Abbey and Coronation Street, and even recently when I was rewatching Cracker (a favourite from the 1990s), he appeared as a pathologist. I also chuckled at the end when they were having dinner - there was a little plate of pickled eggs at Helen’s place 😄

That was my thought, too 😄

😍

I quite liked the series - I thought this last ep was a little rushed, but with only five eps in the series, I guess that couldn’t be helped. I hope we get more seasons!

@dwmarch I tried to like your post but kept getting an error message, so please consider it liked!

Despite Maya saying that he never bothered to learn it, Fisk does know a little ASL because he used a few signs when talking to her in the final episode of Hawkeye (I wonder if we’ll ever get a second season of that show - I loved it). It’s been years since I watched Daredevil. Didn’t Vanessa die at some point? I guess I should watch it again!

Ha, I figured it out. She played the young widow in The Mandalorian first-season ep “Sanctuary” - Mando asked her to look after Grogu, and she wanted him to stay as well (and drink spatchka - okay, it was Cara Dune who suggested that 😄).

Speaking of flashbacks, one of Maya’s ancestors looks so familiar to me, and I can’t remember if she was on Rez Dogs or something else. I can’t upload a picture here because it’s too big and I can’t resize it on mobile, but she’s not the one from the cave and not the one who played the lacrosse-type game - she has what looks like a tattoo on the lower part of her face. @thuganomics85 would you have any idea who it is? It’s bothering me 😄 Thanks! Oh, I managed to make it small enough!
