Thirteen years after a couple apparently committed suicide new evidence emerges suggesting foul play. They worked for a local lookalike agency; she was Cher and he looked like a local football star, Mikey Bishop. It emerges that he had been accused of stalking Bishop although when Danny and Steve pay him a visit they are told it was nothing serious; although Bishop's wife seems a little too keen that they don't question her husband too much. They also talk to the dead woman's sister, who has adopted their son. Strangely as they arrive they see a distinctive car driving away which later turns out to belong to Bishop. Several motives and suspects emerge as it looks as though the dead woman may have been having an affair with Bishop. Away from the case Danny and Fiona are talking about moving in together, Steve is still having money troubles and Sasha is on a course and dealing with her son who has failed his university exams.
This is a decent enough episode but not one of the best. It doesn't help that the ultimate solution involves one of the lookalikes being almost identical to the person they are meant to look like when all the other ones can only be identified by their distinctive clothing and props. This does have one advantage though; it meant I didn't guess the solution. There were some good moments though; it was funny to see Steve getting awestruck when he meets Bishop and the more personal parts of the story were enjoyable. Overall an okay story but not one of the best.
