6/10
A mixed bag, but watchable.

Two Detectives arrive from a neighbouring Station to collect a prisoner, DS Castleman arrives with a dreadful attitude, and is given a tough time at Sun Hill.

It's a bit of an oddity, not the best of episodes, but overall it's a decent watch, the sum of the parts perhaps better than the whole.

I didn't really rate the pretending romance that was touted for Rod, I thought Brian Capron's character was a bit overdone.

The best element for me, the somewhat rare appearance of Dr Who legend Maureen O'Brien, she is just wonderful, it's such an understated and sincere performance.

Price really did make for a revolting villain, I liked the secondary story also, overall it's a pretty good watch, 6/10.
