So clever.

Jonathan and Maddy set out to snare the killer, it seems almost impossible that a dead man could have committed the crime.

Part one was a nice mix of drama and humour, this episode does have touches of humour, particularly at the end where Kitty confronts Hewie, but it has a much more serious tone, it has less of a comedy drama feel about it, and more of a murder mystery.

Plenty of layers to keep you asking questions, you think you know the solution, but once again the writing is such that they produce the unexpected.

Really nice music, adds to the vibe of the episode. The acting is terrific once again, credit to Alan Davies.once again, the art of subtlety.

Excellent' 9/10.

Trivia
The "Josef K" mentioned by Jonathan is the protagonist in Franz Kafka's "The Trial."

Goofs
During the drive up to Duncan's house, Clare makes reference to a "Victorian phone box". The first public telephones in the United Kingdom were not installed until the 1920s, a quarter century after the end of the Victorian era.
