the Shinwell Show

Shinwell,Shinwell,Shainwell. By the Fifth season they seem to be running out of decent polts...fewer interesting murders and more of a soap operish atmosphere. Getting tired of the Shinwell character,who wasn't very interesting to begin with.. The first two seasons were great...I bought the whole series on dvd and find myself fast forwarding episodes after the fifth season.

Trivia
The title "Bang Bang Shoot Chute" is a riff of the lyric "bang, bang, shoot, shoot" from a song by the Beatles, "Happiness is a Warm Gun."

Goofs
It makes no sense for the shooter to even try to shoot the base jumper before his chute deployed. In free-fall, he is moving fast and accelerating quickly, making him very hard to hit. Also once the chute deployed, he would slow down abruptly, another way to miss if the shooter took his shot too early. The logical thing to do would have been to wait for the main chute to slow down the target.

Quotes
Dr. Joan Watson: Anything useful?
Sherlock Holmes: Amongst other things, confirmation that Bennett Nealy and his compatriots were in a sort of addiction spiral. Each stunt of theirs was more dangerous than the last. A cavalcade of risk, served up electronically to an audience of sensation-craving millenials.
