Starting tomorrow, Masterpiece Mystery begins a month of encore episodes of Inspector Lewis - check your local schedules carefully, though, because it is likely that many PBS stations will be in the middle of membership drives. Tomorrow's encore episode is from Inspector Lewis Series II, entitled Point of Vanishing. Here's a brief teaser about the episode:
Watch an encore presentation of Inspector Lewis on MASTERPIECE MYSTERY! In The Point of Vanishing, the murder of a small-time criminal leads Lewis and Hathaway to a prominent Oxford celebrity atheist who years earlier had been the intended target of a botched murder attempt. Could these isolated incidents be connected?You can read my review of Point of Vanishing here. If your local PBS station isn't reairing the episode, you'll be able to watch it online for a limited time.
Check your local listings carefully as your local station is likely in its membership drive (your support helps keep shows like MASTERPIECE MYSTERY! on the air). This encore episode may not be airing in your area or may be scheduled at alternate times.

I can't believe I have to wait a month for new episodes. :'(
@heidenkind - I know, I am not super happy about that either. No more Zen, and a month until new Hathaway? HOW WILL WE SURVIVE??
Case Histories sounds interesting. Jason Issacs as a good guy, in Scotland. There you go!
PS: I depend on you to hear about most upcoming programming. Thanks!
