Inspector Lewis: Allegory of Love (2009)
Season 3, Episode 1
5/10
Scenario done many times
8 December 2023
Took often used standard British detective mystery recurrent thematic elements and pieced them together. The stuffy arrogant professors, wrong murder victim, and fantasy book duality turning to reality. I will say though not an original story it was woven together well into a tightly crafted episode.

The highlight of the average at best episode were the outstanding actors. Gorgeous pale redhead Louise Dylan as Melanie Harding gave the most dynamic contributions in her limited screentime. Selina Cadell as beer guzzling plain talk Professor Rutherford was a treat breaking down the door of the cerebral professor stereotypes.

Lewis like Morse is looking for female action from the story suspect pool. Lewis is even getting help from loosening up, once Lewis thorn in the side, packing on the weight, Rebecca Front as Ch. Supt. Innocent.
