The
chef, Nico, at Lewis's favourite restaurant is found dead
with a broken neck. Then a baby goes missing, but the Greek
community seems unwilling to help Morse and Lewis with their
investigations...
In
Greeks Bearing Gifts Morse listens to vicious gossip
and nearly doesn't solve the case. Jan Harvey is very convincing
in the role of Friday Rees.
There
is a great scene where Morse decides to nick the police stations
TV and video to allow him to do a little homework.
Not
one of the better episodes.
When
a convicted robber dies of aids in prison, the case against
him is reopened. Morse and Lewis head to Australia to pursue
Kenny Stone (alias Mike Harding) the man whose evidence put
away the gang of armed robbers. However, it appears they are
not the only ones in pursuit of the supergrass...
Promised
Land is set in New South Wales, Australia. Morse and Lewis
look decidedly sweaty throughout most of this episode and
even when stopping at a bar Morse orders orange juice much
to Lewis's surprise. When
asked why he didn't have a beer Morse replies "They don't
spell Australian beer with 4 X's out of ignorance".
In
this episode we get to learn Lewis's first name Robert (although
his friends usually call him Robbie). We see Lewis having
a great time and it's quite amusing to watch him getting drunk
with Sergeant Scott Humphries. Morse
on the other hand doesn't seem to be enjoying himself at all
and he doesn't think the Aussie police force are up to much
either.
Ann
Harding, played by actress Rhondda Findleton, is actually
quite well known in New Zealand as the Butter Lady on account
of the fact she has played the mother in a TV advert for Anchor
Butter for 5 years.
