    Storyline

    • Trivia
      In the previous story, Aimee's tax disc ran out in June 2007. At 3.25 the tax disc in the taxi runs out in April 2007 but doesn't necessarily mean this was filmed first as tax discs can last from 6-12 months.
    • Goofs
      The show is set in Yorkshire but, at 00.19 a road sign for West Bromwich and The Jewellery Quarter of Birmingham can be clearly seen.
    • Quotes

      [a man's body has been found. The pathologist reports that the fatal blow has come from something like a rod with a ball on the end of it]

      DI Peter Pascoe: Could have been a priest.

      Det. Supt. Andy Dalziel: Clonked him with a loaded rosary? Three Hail Marys and one How Do St Peter?

    The end is nigh
    It's hard to judge this one.

    There are few recognisible actors here (several in their only performance or their final ever roles in short careers) so the viewer can concentrate on the storyline which is a difficult watch at times but quite compelling too.

    As a Midlander, it is great to see downtown Birmingham on the screen even if it is supposed to be set in Yorkshire and the dodgy accent of the South African hitchhiker is a bit off-putting but a great watch I just hope they can keep it up for the show's final ever episode.
