This is one of my favorite "old Columbo" shows. There certainly is a real chemistry between Lt. Columbo and Joe Devlin. The Irish music is superb. Clive Revill (Devlin) is very entertaining and a likeable killer - I really didn't want him to get caught!!! The "dueling limericks" were terrific - I even repeat the one about the pelican numerous times on every family visit to the beach/ocean. And, as always, Peter Falk is magnificant as the bulldog detective Columbo. If you like the Columbo shows - especially the "old" ones - this episode is a must see. As for a rating, I rarely give out a 10, but this one is among the best and rates 9.75 out of 10!!!
