    Excellent conclusion, some harsh truths are uncovered.

    I felt they were guilty in the first part of being a little too subtle, this second episode is much more dramatic, more gripping, and simply more interesting. I'm sure from the very start of Part one that we all knew the fate of poor Rachel, here we get plenty of suspects, plenty of motives, and we get an excellent conclusion. The characters were much more effective too, Patrick Baladi shows his quality, Robert Pugh was terrific too. Best scenes for me had to be those between Harry and Doctor Phiri (how brilliant was John Kani!) You just knew Harry was suspicious of a 'foreign' pathologists talents, but unsurprisingly Harry learns plenty from the mature senior.

    Once again the location looks sublime, and is arguably the winner, we not only get the obvious wilderness and wildlife, but we also see the extreme poverty of the camps.

    A triumphant end to the series. 8/10

    Some Good/Some Bad in Us All

    This wraps up the reasons Rachel died. She was a person of great integrity and real caring. Because of instability in this African country and greed, her efforts were pretty badly timed. This is a good episode, although I get a bit fed up at time with Nikki's recklessness. Too many close call for her when she oversteps her bounds. Good explanation of what happened in the closing moments.
