This is a fun one to watch; takes place where a "little village" is maintained by the actor David Ryall - I loved him as 'Billy Buzzle' in "Bless me Father!"

I think of this episode as a female version of Robin Hood, the older lady it in is a pain in the ass and has a horrible personality, if that's the way the writers wrote her, she did a great job of acting!

This one is kind of sad if you really think about it after watching it - the main "bell ringer guy" is so obsessed with winning, he shows no empathy or sympathy for those around him who have been murdered. Just crazy!
