Joyce is desperate for the hotel to gain a four star rating, she is convinced that glamorous guest Barbara Simmonds is the hotel assessor, every effort is made to make her stay first class. Liam looks for a change in career.
I keep waiting for the quality to drop off, it never has, this is a brilliant end to series five. Some of the scenes in this one were just side splitting.
Best of all, the cat fight between Joyce and Kenneth, I bet the pair had a riot filming it, it's an incredibly funny and ambitious scene. I'm sure Maudsley was actually having dental work done at the time.
Poor Noreen is a little lost without one of her children, she's continually moved on. What next for The Garveys? Young Michael was terrific here.
I'm quite sad that this is the end for Trudie, she's been a fun character, I wish she'd returned.
The sheer brilliance of Kate O'Mara, brilliant as crime writer Barbara Simmonds.
9/10.
