re: #88 Decatur Deb

Pretty much stuck on the Morse cycle, though Foyle’s War was good for a while. Wallender was like a bad Bergman film, and I couldn’t handle the accent in Wire in the Blood.

Wife likes Poirot and Marple.

We had some Irish and Brit friends over for drinks the other night, with TCM’s airing of Out of Africa sans sound on the tv (kudos to the great cinematographer David Watkin btw), and a drunken cheer went up whenever the actor who plays Foyle, Michael Kitchen, showed up in a couple of scenes, much younger than Foyle ever was.

Did I mention we were all drunk? And dancing the twist?

I wanted to like Wire in the Blood more. but it just didn’t work out. Re Miss Marple and Poirot: I can’t get enough of that stuff.
