Murder, She Wrote: Game, Set, Murder (1995)
Season 11, Episode 21
8/10
A cracking end to series eleven.
16 May 2024
Tennis starlet Louise Henderson is all set to play at the open, but her mental health has taken a hit, and her domineering father is applying huge amounts of pressure on her, she turns to Jessica for help.

I think this is a cracking episode, and a really strong series finale, one of the better episodes from this eleventh run. Very well paced, intriguing, and several threads running, it wasn't a flat, straight up murder, lots going on.

The summing up at the end was so Agatha Christie, all of the suspects gathered together, lovely.

I'm my opinion, it's a plot that would work very well as a film even now, it's so fresh, it works very well, and unlike some of the later episodes, it feels quite fresh.

I know it's not her, but at least they've got someone who can hit a tennis ball, it's frustrating when they cast a potential champion, who can't hit a ball properly.

8/10.
