Re: A strange question about Inspector Morse/Lewis/Endeavour

[aubry]

Aren't most ITV Sunday Night crime dramas the same stuff happening over and over though? Same crimes. Same actors. Same establishing shots. Same stock characters. Walking up and down the same small alley in Oxford trying to make it look like it's longer than it is. It's half the appeal.

I like your head-canon though. Would Lestrade have an erudite young protege, or a scholarly old mentor?

It's a good point - I don't have a lot of experience with crime dramas in general (even Morse is based on a novel series), but what I've seen matches this picture. Also, Oxford is the main reason I started watching Lewis in the first place. The main motifs the audience wants must be much the same (since this is a more or less strictly defined genre) - the friendship between the main characters, the mystery, possibly the opportunity to outwit the detectives.

Inspector Morse differs from the other two somehow, probably because it has a literary counterpat. In literature there seems to be a greater variety of crime plots/tropes.

Both, obviously :) The logical ending point would come with the first ever British policeman. He would have no predecessors.

But there could be someone like Cadfael solving crimes (that series had a sheriff, but you could imagine some earlier setting that didn't have anything like that). We could just keep going back until the British Isles were covered by ice and had no crime to solve!
