This episode was full of the olde fashioned fun directly inherited from an Agatha Christie isolated hotel in winter routine. The internal demons of Endeavour are pushed a bit and Thursday's home front crumble (via the Mum who obviously is amidst her own menopausal break down) add to the pressure.
Even so...despite the increased body count, the final scene's 'explanation' involves so many participants and their revengeful backstory it's almost laughable and truly rather silly.
Yet I enjoyed this episode on a snowbound afternoon, good for nothing but viewing this while my companion knitted away.

I agree with those who see reviewers who have criticised this film for it's interpretation of historical events. It's BASED on true events...it's NOT a chronicle.
Having said that a second viewing of Greenbook over 5 years after its release proves the finest quality it demonstrates in screenplay, story and character development. Some of the dialogue was priceless and exactly the way my Italian American friends approach life in speech and attitude. Fabulous.
But the desperation behind Shirley's character in the lines: "If I'm not white enough, and I'm not black enough...then WHAT AM I?" is heartrending. Just so tragically wrong and a full scale indictment of only one the the many aspects of the what I refer to as the Original American Sin.
Every one should see this film to learn to appreciate the 'other'.
