Oh no, they didn't!: Endeavour-Morse-Lewis Continuity


Recommended Posts

Lady Matilda's College mentioned in Endeavour (most recently "Nocturne") becomes co-ed in Lewis ("Old, Unhappy, Far Off Things").

 

Free Masonry: mentioned by Lewis in "Whom the Gods may destroy" :

 

Innocent: You do scrub up well, Inspector.

 

Lewis: Oh, this penguin suit's been to far too many Masonic dinners - the trouser leg keeps rolling up of its own accord.

The Morse-verse crashed on WETA UK last night: Inspector Morse episode Twilight of the Gods and the Endeavour premiere. So in Twilight, Morse investigates the shooting of an opera singer. At the end, he tells Lewis  this:

 

Chief Inspector Morse: Always preferred art myself. Don't know about life. I'm glad to meet people like Bayden. I'm not that sorry but... Today, I supposed because I've always thought of artista as...(shrugs) ... as being something different.

 

Detective Sergeant Lewis: My dad used to love football - but he didn't like footballers. You have to keep the people that do things apart from what they do.

 

But his first case as a DC in Oxford was a opera singer who murders her husband's teenaged mistress. WTF?

If they ever do an Inspector Hathaway series, I hope James doesn't become Morse 2.0 with drink and depression.

 

So, in the first episode of the first Lewis series, Lewis meets up with a Professor Gold played by Anna Massey. She says that he looks familiar and that they've probably met before in "another life" (similar to what Frazil tells Endeavour at their first meeting.) I googled Anna Massey, she was on Morse's Happy Families, as Lady Balcombe.

I just rewatched the episode early this morn and read your comment during my viewing. So weird! *(I only recently found this thread.)* Needed my fix of a calm, good 'n' decent acting, 'cerebral' mystery.

It's from another Lewis episode, but I can't remember which one.

"Dark Matter." I did not know that but found it here.

Is anyone keeping track of locations? There are some we have seen in more than one episode of the three series. For example, the observatory in Lewis "The Lions of Nemea" looked familiar but I don't even know which series might have shown it before. Hoping there is a web site somewhere.

No, but this blog is fun to look through. https://morseandlewisandendeavour.wordpress.com/lewis/
