My favourite episode of the show.

Kingdom and Angela are having problems, she needs time away, and books a break in Margate, just so happens, there's a murder there.

I'm going to make a bold statement, for me, this is the show's best episode, it takes all of the best elements we've seen from the last three series, and manages to combine them into one great episode.

The story itself, is an excellent one, it's macabre, it's grizzly, it also sees a personal involvement for Kingdom, with his wife very near to the action.

They've made Kingdom a bit of a grump, that's the only gripe I have, he was so measured early on, he's turned into the stereotypical overworked Detective. A shame we didn't get to see Ward get his stripes back.

I loved the twist, you are pretty much lured into believing you know who it is, and why, credit to the writer here though.

Ray Lonnen was perhaps the big name to appear here, however it was the performance of Andy Bradford who impressed me the most, absolutely fantastic as the main suspect, arguably one of the best performances on the show.

Such a shame that this was the last outing for Kingdom and Ward, I'm struggling to get hold of Series 4, but I will at some point.

I thought this was excellent, 9/10.
