!!! WARNING !!!
Do NOT read this if you haven't watched the episode to the end!
Very good episode of a truly outstanding series!
I personally still feel uncertain about the indentity of the redhead in the car with Hamish when he murdered Geoffrey Brennan.
Maria Henry clearly confesses to being the redhead in the car. But it seems to me that Maria COULD have confessed in order to protect her daughter.
And that seems to be supported in the last few minutes of the movie.
Tennyson is shown staring into space, seemingly uncertain about the case. Then it cuts to Maria's daughter, Polly, behind bars in a cell. Not her mother.
The voice-over at that moment (between Tennyson and Cromwell) is still ambiguous about whether it was the mother or the daughter that manipulated Hamish into murdering Brennan.
