DS Young is on hand to take over then Richard falls ill with tropical fever the case, murder, of a diver.

I don't get why people are so hard on this episode, it's bags of fun. It's a smart mystery against a very amusing back story.

The outcome comes as a real surprise, it's a clever mystery, but the intrigue and mystery are almost secondary to the story of Richard being laid up.

Miller is absolutely hilarious, the way he mocks the chicken soup is very funny, Shirley Henderson is so good as the holiday making Detective, the way she marches about is so funny, she pulls some amusing faces and has some great lines.

It also features the gorgeous Kieran O'Brien, so that's another win.

Barmy fun, 8/10.
