Lewis - Series Two

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Kevin Whately returns in the title role for the second series of this popular 'Morse' spinoff. The much-loved Oxford policeman is once again joined by his trusty sidekick, Det Sgt. James Hathaway (Laurence Fox). In this series, havoc reigns in Oxford's religious community, threatening the emotional and physical well being of DS Hathaway. The worlds of no-rules boxing, Oxford dons and Cold War intrigue combine with dangerous consequences; and the talents of an obsessive painter with a photographic memory lie at the heart of a murder in the Bodleian library.

AMAZON.CO.UK REVIEW
After the successful first standalone outing for the character, Kevin Whately returns to the title role of Lewis again, for a second full season of investigations. And things seem, to the benefit of the viewer, just as dangerous as they always were.

This series of Lewis is set five years after the death of Inspector Morse (to whom Lewis was, of course, the sidekick), and while the gap left behind by the late, great John Thaw is occasionally felt, this is still very much quality drama in its own right.

Thus, this DVD set brings together all four feature-length episodes from the second series of Lewis, and finds the detective in his familiar Oxford stomping ground. Accompanied by Laurence Foxs DS Hathaway, a collection of well-written, compelling mysteries are waiting to be solved.

The series investigations cover the discovery of a body in a library through to the world of underground boxing and a rape case that brings out the worst in the Oxford establishment. And there arent any weak links here: each episode is involving, intelligent and a gripping watch. Even at its worst, Lewis is very good television drama.

Whats more, Whately is terrific in the increasingly complex central role, and the scripts continue to allow him to flesh out the character. Lewis is, in many ways, a flawed man, and as he works his way through the layered and involving cases, this becomes ever-more obvious. And the programme is all the better for it. For in spite of some cynicism when it first announced that a standalone Lewis programme was being produced, theres ample here to silence the most sceptical of naysayers. For Lewis is, simply, very strong television. --Jon Foster
