John Thaw and Kevin Whateley returned as Oxfordbased detectives, Morse and Lewis, for the second
run of Central's iconic crime drama - first shown at Christmas 1987 then in the winter of 1988.
The first thriller was later novelised as The Jewel
That Was Ours in 1991. Parts two and four were
based on original Morse mysteries - Last Bus to Woodstock (published in 1975) and Last Seen Wearing (1976) were Colin Dexter's first novels
(the screenplay for the third story was provided
by Charles Wood).
