An intriguing opening, oddly masked men fight and one falls to his death launching the police and our duo (Harry and Fergus) into an investigation. The story is unoriginal, but decently executed, again with strong performances from Jane Seymour and Rohan Nedd both individually and as a couple. The portrayal of Charlie (Kevin Ryan) as Harry's detective son is becoming irritating, he is a figure-of-fun caricature with no agency.

The show plays out like an episode from Scooby-Doo! We have disguises (plague and pig masks), upstairs/downstairs chases, sword fights and a Scooby-Glue floor. The case is solved with a whiff of Deus ex Machina - those pesky kids!

Despite this it is entertaining enough, though not as good as episode 1.

Well can you pig it. Another variant of the Most Dangerous Game plot.

After her initial success, people now regard Harry as a private detective agency rather than a retired professor.

It opens with a man in a pig mask running away from another masked man who acts like an assassin. It is obvious the man in a pig mask was killed.

Later a woman wants Harry's help to find out just what happened to her husband who was thought to have jumped off a building. Harry is reluctant to look into the matter but Fergus persuades her.

It is Fergus who discovers a link between some newspaper ads wanting people from certain professions, some of them who were found dead a few days later.

Harry comes across a sinister group hosting a real life hunting game for gamblers in Dublin. If one of the three hunted survive there is 100,000 Euros for them.

Although Harry gets her son Charlie involved. She thinks that someone from the police department could be involved in this shady group. Something Charlie scoffs at.

It was too derivative, although you have to admire Charlie for his naivety. There could be no bent coppers in his police department.

I always liked Jane Seymour's acting well enough, but in this serie it's like she's over acting, I find it irritating, she was always more ladylike but here it's like she's trying to be tough in a tactless way. Who knows maybe she's just following the directer's advice, but it's not working, she looks too ladylike.
