Morse/Lewis/Hathaway: vote in our heretical Facebook poll

share this article

There is an intriguing heresy planted several paragraphs down in Adam’s review of Lewis, which resumed last night on ITV. “It’s the relationship between Lewis and Hathaway that makes the thing worth watching. In fact, it sometimes seems more interesting than the slightly ponderous master-and-servant routine Lewis used to go through with Morse.”

Can this really be so? Or maybe Adam has given voice to a suspicion millions of viewers have secretly nursed for a while. What do you think? On our Facebook page we have posted a question: “Is the partnership between Lewis and Hathaway actually more interesting than the one between Morse and Lewis?” You can answer "Actually yes" or "Can't believe you even asked". Or add another option.

You’ll find our Facebook page here. Lately we've been under the bonnet working to improve our social networking. This month The Times listed theartsdesk on Twitter at No 3 in their Top 100 arts tweeters. We’re working to match that billing on our Facebook page. Do join us.
