Small-time street crud Scots Harry pops up again. This time to blow a safe in a sewing shop so that the owner could claim the insurance.
Naturally, he screws it up. Even ends up bandaged like Frankenstein's monster.
Arthur and Terry are in the middle of it, of course.
Hot on the trail are Chisholm and Jones.
Somewhere along the way the producers of Minder figured out that if they kept the caper straightforward and focused on the humor, while keeping the pace up, they had an unbeatable formula.
This episode in particular glides along so perfectly that by the time it wraps and the credit rolls it actually surprised me it was already over.
At this point of TV's perfect series, my only question is why an American network never stole the idea and made a U. S. version.
