My local PBS just rebroadcast the 1997 Rebecca, and I noticed that a secondary WGBH station is playing it tonight (9/21/17) at 9 with 2AM repeats on the main WGBH; so check your local listings!  Anyway, I didn’t realize before all the little nods to Rebecca in the Inspector Lewis episode Life Born of Fire.  The reappearance of Rebecca is probably because it stars Game of Thrones actors (Charles Dance, Diana Rigg) but of course, there is also Emilia Fox looking just like Girl Hathaway.  (I am still mad that Laurence’s cousin Emilia Fox didn’t play Nell Hathaway in series 9.  It would have been too perfect!)  And Emilia Fox’s mom Joanna David also played the 2nd Mrs. de Winter in a previous version; Joanna David played Morse’s ex-fiancée Susan.  So there’s already a lot of fun Morse-verse connections before even considering Life Born of Fire.  Life Born of Fire co-stars Rachael Sterling as Zoe Kenneth, who burns down the house just like Mrs. Danvers, who was played by Sterling’s mom, Diana Rigg.  And just for fun, here is Robbie Lewis’ Charles Dance impression, rescuing Hathaway from the fire.  =)   -- source link
