Just when I thought the show was past it sell by date, they bring this episode out from of the blue. Series 3 should have started here.
Charlotte Anne Bongaerts comes into her own as Rosalinde Dietrich in her final episode. Personally, I feel she would have made a great replacement for Ella Leyers but it is a good episode for Saskia too with a fall out with John making things difficult.
Despite being at his own trial, Jasper has another case on his mind which, as usual, he deducts the offender.
There is no Conny in this episode and Ingrid is rather quiet but there are still great funny moments too.
The selective morality of the show does leave me wondering. It wasn't really an issue in the first 2 series but more obvious here.
A pregant woman in a same sex relationship is positive and there is a glimpse of what has to be assumed of two daddies (both white of course!) meeting their child but anyone whom is not white seems to belong in prison. This is why the once great show has become so irritating. Somehow, I get the feeling that the British version will start out like this. Either be all inclusive or don't mention these things at all. It's a long way from the sensitive euthanasia story.
It does leave you wondering whom will get the team leader role. Will it be the honest, hard working middle aged heterosexual (not that we have seen his wife) male or the back-stabbing young lesbian whom will no doubt turn out to have a heart of gold? Let's see what the writer decides.
A great musical finale rounds off the story but 1 point off for the PC messages and 1 point off for the judge's decision but they had to get Jasper out somehow. Just a shame we had to wait so long.
