Brilliant episode of Morse. The policeman who solves murders the way we do a crossword puzzle.
Morse is called in to investigate the murder of a retired Deputy Police Commissioner. Police spot a car leaving the scene of the crime. A search of the number plates lead them to Mr Frederick Redpath.
After interviewing a publisher it turns out that a key chapter is missing from the victim's memoirs. This leads them back to Redpath who was the key suspect in the murder of a child 18 years previous. A murder that both Morse and the victim worked on.
Christopher Eccleston features in this episode. He went on to star in "The second coming" and "Dr Who." Kenneth Colley and Oliver Ford Davies are also quite brilliant.
This episode is deeply satisfying. Morse never leaves you wanting more. It does not rip you off. They just don't make TV like this any more.
