Watching this is a cheap way to go to France for the evening. I had watched it on television a few years back and had really enjoyed it. But this second time watching it was a little less enjoyable. I found the way 'Morse' kept repeating in English what the French person was saying to be quite irritating. It seemed to be done this way for the benefit of non French speaking viewers but subtitles are less irritating. It was still lovely though to be immersed in the French countryside and that beautiful light. The events are sometimes predictable but it seems it's more the atmosphere that makes watching it fun and less so the actual stories.
