Deakin is informed that someone he failed to put away is back in Sun Hill, and responsible for several missing girls.
Definitely an interesting story, with plenty of merits. This is one of those instances where I would say the 25 minute running time works as an obstruction, there is a really great story here, but it's somehow rushed through, it doesn't develop, and the eventual unveiling of the criminal somehow doesn't work.
The story is unique, it's original, I don't recall one like this on the show before.
I liked the character of Lenny, he was perhaps the main player here, Jon Strickland was great, I've just watched him in an episode of Poirot, The Adventure of The Egyptian Tomb, what a different role, he's very good.
If only this one was an hour long, it would have worked so much better, 6/10.
