Two more cases for the ale-drinking Oxford detective. In 'The Day of the Devil' Morse (John Thaw) finds himself in a race against time when criminal mental patient John Barrie (Keith Allen) escapes from his high security prison. Barrie, a master of disguise, indulges in a lethal game of cat and mouse, skilfully eluding the police's manhunt and forcing an increasingly desperate Morse to second-guess him before time runs out. In 'Twilight of the Gods' Morse investigates when an attempt is made on the life of one of his favourite opera singers, Gladys Probert (Sheila Gish). As he looks deeper into the case, he uncovers a scandal dating back to the Second World War, and discovers a connection between a murdered journalist and the founding of a new college at Oxford University.

Additional InformationThis INSPECTOR MORSE collection present two more feature-length episodes of the long-running mystery series. In THE DAY OF THE DEVIL, when a wacko mental patient named John Barrie (Keith Allen) escapes from an asylum, Inspector Morse (John Thaw) is hot on his trail. The catch is that Barrie is a man of a thousand faces--literally, a master of disguise. Soon Barrie engages in a battle of wits with Morse, and things heat up when the local police organize a manhunt. Morse realizes he's after more than the average escaped nutjob when he discovers signs of ritual Satanism in the sleepy town of Oxfordshire, and he must team up with a plucky female psychiatrist to stop the dastardly villain's heinous hijinks. TWILIGHT OF THE GODS features a wealthy businessman (John Gielgud) who has donated a college building to the city of Oxford which is deemed by many in poor taste due to the fact that it is a modern rendition of the Rajput Palace. All the same, the locals show their appreciation for the gift in a glorious celebration. Meanwhile, Inspector Morse and Sgt. Lewis (Kevin Whately) are busy investigating the murder of a journalist who was in the process of preparing an article that would possibly exploit the real motives
