You don’t have to be a fan of the popular British television series, Inspector Morse, or of the Colin Dexter novels on which they are based to enjoy this compelling travel show. By the time the show ends, you’ll be both. Hosted by Brian Redhead, the show takes audiences on a leisurely stroll around the historic English town, tying together the pubs, shops and other buildings along the way with scenes from the shows and the books. The author himself is on hand to give some background detail on why certain locations were chosen, and there are interviews with cast member and producers to shed some light on why Oxford was such a big part of the series. The story gets derailed a bit with an overlong section exploring the music of the series, but soon gets back on track.
