7/10
A slightly uncomfortable watch.

A woman catches a fleeting glance at a man who's assaulted someone, Loxton and Slater are keen to make an arrest, so take the woman on a trip to try and spot the perpetrator, they spot someone, but he doesn't quite match the description.

It's somewhat difficult to interpret the spirit of this episode, as it does show a pretty pure form of racism, Loxton and Slater do not come out of this one smelling of roses. I find Loxton really rather difficult to like, well acted though. Were they perhaps trying to highlight the issues people of colour felt, were they highlighting the problem, or condoning it, make your own mind up.

Debbie has become a firm favourite, still tagged with the goody two shoes tag, she's to the book, well almost. Very good episode for her.

7/10.
