Milz July 8, 2014 Share July 8, 2014 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. 1 Link to comment
AntiBeeSpray July 14, 2014 Share July 14, 2014 I love the continuity that they're bringing to the shows! One of my favorites is Lewis listening to classical music like Morse used to :). I remember how he thought it was odd back when Morse did XD. 2 Link to comment
Milz July 15, 2014 Author Share July 15, 2014 Yes, I noticed that too. It's like Morse rubbed off on him. With Endeavour around, I wonder if they'll tie some of its characters into Lewis. 1 Link to comment
Nadine July 15, 2014 Share July 15, 2014 I loved that Lewis/Hathaway sit in the same spot to share a beer at the same spot Morse/Lewis did. 1 Link to comment

And it's cute XD. Good point, maybe they will. I miss Morse sometimes though :(. Man was cool. Link to comment
Milz July 21, 2014 Author Share July 21, 2014 My PBS station showed The Remorseful Day recently. Morse is telling Lewis not to give up on Wagner. 1 Link to comment

M. Darcy July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 WETA UK is really good about showing Morse episodes - we get them every Wednesday night plus the Baltimore station shows them also. I recorded Remorseful but haven't rewatched it yet - except for the final heartbreaking goodbye from Lewis. Link to comment
Milz July 24, 2014 Author Share July 24, 2014 (edited) 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? Edited July 24, 2014 by Milz 1 Link to comment
debi49 October 7, 2014 Share October 7, 2014 This is probably old news but I just tumbled to the fact that Robbie's superior is called Jean Innocent. Link to comment
Milz October 20, 2014 Author Share October 20, 2014 So far,Lewis has made two references to his Morse years in the new series. I wonder if the Powers That Shape the Morse-verse is setting up to do some kind of Endeavour - Lewis arc? 1 Link to comment
Milz December 4, 2014 Author Share December 4, 2014 My PBS station (WETA UK) is showing Morse's "Last Seen Wearing". Morse is such a dick in this episode to Lewis in this episode. It makes me wonder a few things....Friday wasn't a dick to Endeavour (at least we haven't seen that yet), Lewis wasn't a dick to Hathaway, so why did Morse turn out to be a dick? Link to comment
Thumper82003 December 16, 2014 Share December 16, 2014 (edited) Milz, I love Morse, but he can be a dick because he's a depressed alcoholic. I always seem to think that no murders would be solved if they gave all the detectives Prosac. All of the TV detectives seem to be clinically depressed.

Milz December 18, 2014 Author Share December 18, 2014 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. Link to comment

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. 1 Link to comment
Milz February 10, 2016 Author Share February 10, 2016 I can't remember with Morse episode, but he said had to make a speech at a police conference sometime in the late 1960s (i think it was 1967). And he's a bit melancholy about it. So I hope Endeavour shows what happened. Link to comment
Driad July 25, 2016 Share July 25, 2016 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. Link to comment

No, but this blog is fun to look through. https://morseandlewisandendeavour.wordpress.com/lewis/ 2 Link to comment
