I would honestly go so far as to say I think Intelligent Design is one of the best episodes of Lewis, it really does work on every level. We have some outstanding characters, a deep mystery, and some truly wonderful production values, it looks terrific.
Jean Innocent actually leaves her Office and does some theorising, she is almost like a fictional character on times, Miss Cathcart from Hi De Hi, springs to mind.
Alison Steadman is excellent, Ariyon Bakare is terrific, I could list to that voice all day, what talented actor.
This doesn't stick to the rules, a few unexpected moments, daring to take people out of the game before you expect them.
This plays out like they expected it to be the end, luckily we'd get another two series. It feels like the end of an era, in a way it is.
Genuinely excellent viewing, 9/10.
