The UCOS team reopen the thirty year old case of Jim Hockney, a porn star who was murdered, the team are still coming to terms with Brian's departure, and his replacement.
The story of Jim's murder was decent enough, but it was sidelined in favour of Danny's introduction. I watched one or two episodes at the time, and with Brian gone, I really didn't think he was a good fit, however, his debut episode was really good, I thought Lyndhurst fitted in really well, nice to see him playing a very different role.
I look forward to learning more about Danny, and his daughter especially. I wish they hadn't made him such a massive know it all.
Compared to the first quartet of episodes from this series, this one wasn't in the same league, it's solid, but the crime itself just wasn't that intriguing.
Henry Goodman was great as Gavin Reason, Mad Gav was a great character, a real old school rogue, perhaps the best of the guests.
Solid, 7/10.
