House of Ghosts - An Inspector Morse Mystery (Gordon Craig Theatre, Stevenage)
Back to Show Details| Score | Comment | Date |
 | HOUSE OF GHOSTS - RICHMOND "This dog sounds like it hasn't got a clue (6,3)". Morse minus John Thaw and Kevin Whateley, silenced of Barrington's Pheloung's score and distanced from its Oxford settings, equals, well, Scooby Doo. Sorry, but this was VERY disappointing - not helped by Colin Baker borrowing more from Terry Scott than Mr Thaw. That idiosyncratic take on Morse bellowing "Lyoowis!" sounded just like Terry calling for June. This diminishes, rather than enhances, the original. Not so much "morse" as a downright "SOS". - Roger Risborough | 06 Sep 10 |
| I agree with the reviewier that stated the play could do with tidying up. I saw House Of Ghosts on Tuesday at the Gordon Craig. Thought Colin Baker was excellent as the inspector. The play could lose 20 minutes quite easily. - Robert Hislop | 04 Sep 10 |
