Dalziel and Pascoe investigate the drugs world.
Sleepin_Dragon4 March 2016
Zack Graham, a young man, collapses at a Night club and gets taken into Hospital in a coma and soon dies. Initial thoughts are that he died of a drug overdose, but his toxicology reveals that he may have been murdered.

Bernard Cribbins is just fantastic as Henry, the look on Dalziel's face when he first sees him at the door is hilarious. Real life brother and sister duo The Potts are both good fun, creepy in their respective roles.

The episode did a good job in capturing the drugs/music culture of the late 1990's, that's exactly what it was like in the clubs back in the day. It's a clever story, one that fitted in well during the time period, wouldn't really work nowadays, but it's good for a bit of nostalgia. Time to go is to Dalziel and Pascoe what Cherabim and Seraphim was to Morse.

A good episode, but this show got better as it went on for sure.

7/10.

Not so many classic actors in this episode (Midsomer Murders was getting into its pomp on ITV by this time which was more of a home for quintessential actors) but a good story with a predominantly younger cast.

This was probably filmed before the previous story as Dalziel had his old Rover car back.

He seemed to lose his the same time as Barnaby in Midsomer Murders as the British car industry disappeared.

A good story and a few whimsical jokes mainly at the expense of Dalziel with his past catching up with him.

Watchable.
