Rhoda Markowitz: You are about as tough as marshmallow pie.
Dennis Stanton: Ah, did you ever read 'Henry Vi, Part 2', Rhoda?
Rhoda Markowitz: Ah... No, I must have missed that one.
Dennis Stanton: Act four, scene two. Dick, the butcher says, "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers." Now, do you think Shakespeare had those two in mind when he wrote that? Ah...

Featured review
A pretty good episode.
Dennis Stanton is once again on the case, a case of murder, the death of a despicable lawyer.
I didn't hold out a lot of hope for this one, if you're like me, you see Jessica give the almost pointless introduction, and you think, oh no here we go again....
However, this is a pretty decent episode. A good mystery, and some nice characters, the return of an old favourite, but for me some of the dialogue is a little flat, it does feel a little overly produced at times.
Keith Michell is always good value as Stanton, there is something of The Avengers about him, he's suave, eloquent, and a dab hand with an umbrella.
I'm writing this in 2022, some 32 years later, and despite the hideous hairstyles, and shocking clothes, it still feels pretty fresh. (That Mazda MX-5 certainly does. )
An entertaining watch, 6/10.
