3 stars is way too generous. I've not watched any of the episodes since Dudgeon took over, wanting to rest with John Nettles portrayals. I'll still give him another chance or two, but after that, if it still doesn't catch my interest, I'm off to discover some other murder stories. As other people have wondered, why in the world didn't Barnaby guard the poor girl so she needn't have been pestered by the maniac? The suspects were of no interest and barely suspected and poor Pam Ferris, whom I always like, had nothing to do but screech and look loathsome. Dudgeon may be okay but his character's personality is not anywhere near as inviting as John Nettles' Barnaby. And give something to Hughes to do as his cohort; have their interplay more playful and not so mean-spirited (on the part of Barnaby). All in all, towards the end, it was more of a speed forward affair. Disappointed greatly. Was hoping for the continuation of some class.
