I guess I preferred the one I'd seen first! (Although Morse has better music, so that's a win!)

If you haven't already, you should really watch Endeavour, aka 'Young Morse': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endeavour_(TV_series) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endeavour_(TV_series) It is very, very, good.

  Must admit that I never got into Endeavour, but then I also preferred the Lewis series to Morse :)

  I watched the first few episodes, but for some reason I didn't enjoy it. I will second the sibling comment though; I really enjoyed watching Lewis.

Much like Suchet with Poirot, Joan Hickson made Miss Marple her own - Christie wrote to her years before the series was made, hoping that Hickson would one day play the part.
