    Hey You! You're Under Arrest!!!

    So we start out here with Dopey Hardy in the hospital. Miller finally finds out about Hardy's medical condition. Miller finally figures out that an 'unfit for duty' Hardy came and took her job from her.

    It's odd but it seems like I hardly paid attention during this ep. They went after the son of the DOG WALKER LADY who happens to also by Tom's partner in his job, plumbing.

    Boy they just have no clue. Everyone is suspect. 4/10.

    A brilliant, revealing episode.

    Just who was the man on the beach? Susan is finally straight with The Police, and having explained her reluctance to be open and honest before, she at last explains who she saw on that tragic night, and what exactly they were doing.

    The Press once again have a new lead, and pursue a story over the truth being allowed to come out.

    It takes a little bit of a side step, it doesn't focus solely on the case, we get a little bit of background on Alex here, we learn what makes him tick.

    Watching back, you see that Ellie bears something very relevant.

    Olly truly is a reptile, he's caused one man's death, and now he's on another witch hunt. Olly and Maggie are both interested in a big story, Pickles and Bailey have been great.

    One more to go, it is so exciting. Excellent, 9/10.
