The Headless Hat
22 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The episode starts with a murder in the Marseille docks and a sailor's hat is left behind.

Colonel March finds himself holidaying in the French Riviera. A hotel run by an English widow Mrs Sargent.

The Colonel bumps into Inspector Goron from Paris who arrives to the hotel with a local police inspector. He is looking into the murder in Marseille. The dead man had regularly stayed at the hotel.

The hat left behind could belong to the mysterious murderer with past links to the French Resistance, Monsieur Z. Someone no one has ever seen and who has become an outlaw after the war.

Monsieur Z's gang has been involved in currency smuggling including sterling which is a reason why Colonel March just happens to be involved.

It is an episode that relies on cunning from Colonel March who sneakily takes the hat from Goron

Although there might be another suspect involved. It really is a case of whether Mrs Sargent happens to be the notorious Z. She really gives the game away by her constant lies.

Inspector Goron is fun and just as wily as March.
