A very, very good watch.

PJ has yet another death to deal with, when another body is unearthed.

I was a little mixed by the first two episodes, I enjoyed to a degree, this third one though, for me this was a massive improvement, I thoroughly enjoyed it, it was so good.

It's quite worrying that I'm watching this in bed with a glass of white wine!!

Oh my days, that scene, that scene!!!! I wondered why the great Brenda Fricker was in this, she'd only had a minor part, until now, in this one, she totally steals the show, it's a long scene, essentially a monologue, and it is incredible, even the wonderful Conleith Hill looks spellbound, what an actress.

PJ is such an interesting character, I can't make him out, and that's perhaps a good thing, his bromance with Linus is intriguing.

It was good to hear a cameo from writer Graham Norton, I did wonder if he'd appear at some time.

Really enjoyed this, 8/10.

Brenda Fricker ...OMG!

The series is solid - clever, subtle and charming. This episode, however, is exceptional. Brenda Fricker's monologue is a masterclass - literally Oscar worthy: powerful, moving and compelling. I couldn't take my eyes off her.

Recommended.
