So we get the ugly bag of frogs who is still working at the coroner's office at the age of 80? I thought there were standards and mandatory retirement for government workers in the UK?
Doctor Froggy never added much to this show. The original coroner George Bullard (played by Barry Jackson), was leaps and bounds better than Froggy (played by Annette Hagland).
Hagland is grumpy every time she shows up for work. She shares gross and unprofessional banter about her active sex life, bumping uglies with other oldies, and she bullies Hendrix too.
The story of a dog trainer kidnapping dogs because she thinks the owners are not giving them good care is really bizarre. Who writes this nonsense? In a small town nobody could get away with that, not once, but several times. Not to mention murdering the dog owners. Why take a shot like that at dog trainers? There are enough psychopaths around. Why create a myth that some resentful dog trainer is going around killing pet owners?
Like the rest of this season, Barnaby waddles around like he needs the BBC to buy him a scooter. A few filler minutes of his trophy wife and their android kid telling him they are going to a party. Just a lot of empty time-filling because the writer has no story to tell, and ran out of dog owners to kill off.
