Storyline

A mysterious man steals David's taxi (and his breakfast). He does not get very far though when Bernie recognizes the car and refuses to give him some petrol and is soon apprehended. He has obviously been in a fight because his face is bruised, and he claims he cannot remember who he is. Nurse Cassidy takes care of his injuries while PC Mason is called out to assist Sergeant Miller. A dead woman has been found at the foot of a rock and Miller agrees with PC Mason that the two cases are connected. Alf Ventress and Oscar Blaketon are planning a camping trip to France to see all the places they passed through during the war - on push bikes! They get a few tips from James Moncrieff, a fellow war veteran who is on holiday in Aidensfield.

Trivia

During a scene when PC Joe Mason is standing beside his motorbike talking to Oscar Blaketon outside the Aidensfield Arms, a man dressed in a hooded coat and carrying a large scythe is seen to walk past the Aidensfield Garage in the background. After the episode was broadcast, some people on discussion forums suggested that the scene had been altered to include the Grim Reaper when it became known that no further episodes would be made, though in fact the decision to end the series was taken long after filming had finished.
