Trivia
Karl Pilkington 'Idiot Abroad' appears in this episode. He also sports the same orange and perfectly spherical head and dull manc expression that made this hairless chimp so beloved.

Goofs
When the photo of John and Anne is shown to the editor of the Daily Mirror, the image seen through the back of the paper shows John on the left and Anne on the right which is the correct but this is a reverse and the image on the front of the page is flipped.

Astonishing.

John has had enough, and decides to head back to The UK, with a story of amnesia, unfortunately a previous mistake comes back to haunt them.

You couldn't even make up a story like this, you have to admire the audacity of the couple, to even contemplate such a plan.

Can you imagine thinking someone that you love is dead, and then seeding them alive, I wonder what the relationship is like nowadays.

I am thoroughly enjoying this brilliant drama, great story, but it's the acting, it's just extraordinary, Dolan and Marsan are two of the best, Mark Stanley was excellent here.

Two unexpected faces, great to see Andrew Lancel, and Karl Pilkington of all people, inspired casting.

So good, 9/10.
