Jessica travels to Monaco to stay with an old friend, a friend that's being coerced out of her hotel by an unscrupulous businessman.
I'm a little indifferent towards this episode, they've done a cracking job throughout this series of putting Jessica in new situations, we've had none of the nephews and neighbours and tonnes of friends, here we're back to Jessica having another friend, who happens to be a hotelier.... overdone.
Too easy to spot who was going to be killed, and bty whom.
It's a good looking episode, and though we know full well that it's as much Monte Carlo as it is Burkina Faso, it's still passable, visually it's pretty good.
Some really good actors and familiar faces here, I don't feel they made good use of any of them, especially Ian Ogilvy.
There are a few moments that didn't quite hang together, I didn't think you'd die by being stabbed in the shoulder? I may be wrong. Jessica popping in and out of the kitchen, well that's a health and safety nightmare right there.
6/10.
