The body of a young woman is found by the side of a railway crossing, a young woman who's been battling cancer.
I don't know about you, but for me the recent run of episodes, some of the show's best, this was another great episode.
A really powerful and sad story, with some interesting and intriguing twists, Gabby was definitely a complex character. There's a little more humour here than is usually the case, Vera's toothache provided a few laughs.
Too notch cast here, including Gillian Kearney and Shaun Dooley, great to see Julia Sawalha, and wow she is ageing incredibly well, she simply doesn't seem to age, she's great here, a passionate performance.
Things felt a little more settled here, with Joe behaving more like one of the team, rather than the rule book obsessed smart arse he'd turned into.
There's so much speculation in the press about this show ending, I hope it's not the case, on recent evidence, there's a season or two surely.
9/10.
