Brilliant drama, 19 April 2003
Author: Jamfocus from England

This drama was brilliant, all the actors in it gave brilliant performances, this was pure english drama which for some reason finished without a trace, why was it axed it should be brought back. Patricia Rouledge is brilliant just like she was in keeping up apperances. best mystery drama in years.
