- Quotes
DS Ben Jones: I don't go there for three years, then twice in one week. I might get fond of the place. Apply for a transfer.
DCI Tom Barnaby: Oh, don't say that, Jones. Got enough on me plate without losing you.
DS Ben Jones: That could almost have been a compliment.
DCI Tom Barnaby: Almost.
Featured review
Very visual, good story, and of course Welsh hymns.
Death and Dust sees Barnaby and Jones investigate a case which ultimately leads them to the mountains of Snowdon. It's a very intriguing episode, the journey from rural Midsomer to the dramatic, exquisite scenery of North Wales is a good one, the focus very much on the story, as opposed to daring killing methods, or outlandish twists, this is simply a very good murder mystery. The Helicopter chase is very dramatic, gives the episode a big budget feel, even if it is a little unrealistic it lends itself pretty well to the dramatic conclusion.
It's nice that the setting moves from the rural Shires to the dramatic mountains of Snowdonia, it's that switch up that gives this episode a very fresh feel. The acting is very good from the strong Welsh cast, for me it's the late Gareth Thomas (Blake himself) that dominates the screen, a hugely commanding, charismatic, and much missed talent. Some nice touches of humour, the patio ensured a few laughs.
Did they have to have 'Canon lan' belting out as soon as we moved to Wales!
Enjoyed this one very much.
