I enjoyed (what I saw of) it too.Had a quick bath to ease a very painful back about an hour ago.
When I was younger I thought Morse was tedious shite,but have watched quite a few repeats in the last couple of years and thought them to be be excellent. Some of the music is glorious as well. :y

I must admit I had Inspector Chisholm Patrick Malahide in the frame, as it is so often the well known actor who does the deed. :( Excellent play though. I look forward to the next. :y

I can't see it having been a real Jag, or if it was, it'll have been a really rough car that'd been blown over at the front. Too few MKII's around these days to trash one.  ;) ;) ;)

I know the one they used in Morse was a wreck from the props department.  I'm sure I heard a comment by John Thaw when Morse started that he had already wrecked that very same car in The Sweeney.

It went up a bit in value during its 'life' as Morse's car .....http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=226651  ;)

I'm sure that one  MK2 Jag at the car lot was wearing a "G" plate 1968/69. Poor continuity.

Definitely the same plate, I commented on at the time to SWMBO  :y :y

I thought it was good ;)
After thinking/being used to John Thaw as Morse (or vice versa) I have to say, that, whoevever the lad was who played Endeavor, I thought he played John Thaw to a tee.
Does that make sense :D :D :D :D :D ;)
