So. Gabriel and Velvy are out. In comes brusque piano-playing Harriet, Maggie Steed (Fisherman's Friends, The Painted Veil). And (another) diminutive forensic analyst, Kit, Francesca Mills.
Exodus 20:17 is written by Tim Prager (and for the first time he's also an executive producer). And it's a disturbing story of thugs who bump off old people and take their properties. In this case pensioner David Hargreaves realises his friend has gone missing and starts disturbing the young couple who've moved into her house. Rather than investigating any of this the useless WPC does nothing (a good touch). Rather than lie down though the old man much to our surprise bumps off one of the thugs (a shame really because he'll be banged up) but the other is apprehended and cockily demands that they 'Prove it'. 'We will,' is Nikki's defiant last line.
It was dedicated to Helen Whitwell, who was the consultant pathologist on Season 1.
Sean Pertwee investigates.
In Homecoming, written by Ed Whitmore, two murders are linked to a local Government cover up... apparently. I'm afraid I can't really remember this one, but there are familiar faces in Zoe Telford, Ellie Haddington and Lorcan Cranitch.
