Best police duo since Morse and Lewis
21 April 2007 | by (England) – See all my reviews

Excellent acting here. Lee Ingleby is particularly good, as ever. Martin Shaw is also on form, away from the laughable Judge John Deed series. They make a good pair, as they both have a strong and distinct manner and personality. ITV would have done better to take Ingleby instead of Fox for their Lewis series.

My only query is the accents. Considering that Bacchus is said to have attended the same school as the motorcyclists, how come Richard Armitage's character speaks Geordie, whereas Ingleby has only touches of that, and to my non-expert ears basically sounds like someone from Yorkshire?

The story is good, and the supporting cast is made up of top-class actors doing their stuff.

This cries out to be made into a series. I hope it will be.
