With Jack absent, the team investigate the death of an actor, who died on stage some years back in tragic circumstances.
It's a good episode, which has some real moments of greatness. The story is good, intriguing and thought provoking. The best element here though, the acting, there are some exceptional scenes.
Brian's scenes on stage are incredible, his monologue and scene with Claire Bloom are some of the show's best moments, Armstrong at his best, he is exceptional. Claire Bloom is also equally terrific, for my money she's one of the best.
It's so odd to have an episode with no Jack, Bolam is definitely missed in this one. Young Strickland makes for an amusing enough stand in, with some funny jokes.
Very watchable, 8/10.
