Featured review
A below par story, but some good visials.
A trip of jewel thieves, Joe Morgan, Nick Daniels and Olson kill a Policeman in their latest heist, their aim is to get the I'll gotten gains to Holland, but Maguire is on the case.
Not the best, it's one of the slightly weaker episodes, it's not helped by the plot or dare I say it, some of the action sequences. Some of the fighting you'll see here will make you blush.
There are a few reasons why this episode is worth watching, seeing a young Gordon Jackson is definitely interesting, he's solid enough, but the scenes of the docks are just fascinating, there's some terrifiic location work here.
Fortunately Maguire is once again immune to bullets, fair play he must have been wearing some sort of futuristic anti bullet armour.
5/10.
