***SPOILERS*** Hadn't seen an episode in quite a while, much less one I 'd never seen. It was terrific, in my opinion. All the usual elements are there, of course, plus a couple of new wrinkles. The acting, of course is top drawer, and the subplot's undercurrent of class distinction is very clearly brought to the fore in the ending of this very fine drama. I've always found it intensely curious how Tom Barnaby puts up with snobs who are so blantantly vacant. I know you see this coming: as an American, i find so-called class differences disgusting, and treasonous. In England, apparently, they still get away with it - pity. As far as the subject family "protecting" the 'family honor', they didn't have any honor to defend in the first place, it was a happy ending. Cully's wedding was a forgone conclusion, even with all the twists and turns; some very funny. I loved it. Of course, I hope the marriage works out, but long term? ...oh, well. I like all of this series, and of course Barnaby as the coolest detective still operating. I say this is a strong 10.
