Kevin Whately Trying Quotations

I don't think of it as coming back - I'm trying to fight the idea that this is Morse revisited. It's the same character, but without John inevitably it's going to be a very different animal. A lot of the old Morse fans will tune in and I want to play down the expectations that it will be Morse, because it can't be. John was a particularly special actor - in my view he was the best TV actor we've ever had - so you want to aim high. But you can't expect it to be Morse. It's Lewis.

You can see some very great theatre actors who don't work at all well on screen. They're trying too hard at it.

Walking is my main method of relaxation. I don't go over my lines or try to solve the world's problems, I just enjoy the scenery and the wildlife.

I never have liked detective dramas. I try to watch all of them to see what's going on, but I don't like them.
