Playboy architect Michael Gifford has been strangled in
his car and the only clues to the murder are his diary and
a car parking ticket. The list of suspects grows as Morse
and Lewis uncover a love triangle involving the dead man...
The
Secret of Bay 5B stars George Irving as George Henderson
(alias Dr Anton Mayer - Holby City) Morse finds himself
getting closer to Dr Grayling Russell and even steps out with
her on the dance floor, only to be called away to investigate
a murder.
This
episode sees the clearest indication so far that Grayling
is falling for Morse as she drops several hints that she would
like to take their relationship further, and the episode ends
on a happy note with the two of them sharing a laugh and heading
off to the theatre together.
A
few funny moments with Morse nearly getting seduced by a prostitute,
and Lewis seeming so concerned at the loss of Morse's theatre
tickets that he absent-mindedly puts his half eaten lunch
in his pocket, only to find it later. Lewis does a good -
blink and you'll miss it - impression of Stan Laurel in a
scene in the pub with Morse. Lewis yet again receives a nasty
crack on the head, leading to the joke from Morse that he
must have a skull like an anvil.
Secret
of Bay 5B fails to entertain as much as other Morse outings,
but is still worth a look.
The
additional photo gallery includes many photographs of Morse
and Dr Russell, and includes some very nice portraits of Amanda
Hillwood.
Inspector Morse investigates the tangled web of evidence
surrounding the mysterious death of an eminent environmentalist,
Professor Julian Dear, killed minutes before he was due to
give a highly controversial lecture. Morse has to unravel
the mysterious crank parcels being sent to one of the Masters
of the College, and a further death only adds to the mystery...
The
Infernal Serpent features one of the better opening sequences,
with most of the investigation cantering around Beaufort College.
Morse yet again reveals his chronic squeamishness, leaving
Lewis to explore what later becomes a key clue in the case.
The
episode stars Geoffrey Palmer (Butterflies) as Master
Matthew Copley-Barnes. And once again we catch Lewis pulling
funny faces. The
Infernal Serpent also sees Dr Grayling Russell departing
the series.
Photo
Gallery - They must have been scraping the barrel for this
selection of photographs, subjects are either out of focus
or not framed properly. I could have taken a better shots
with my old Brownie Instamatic.
