- TriviaThe modernist house in which Lamerat lives is used again in series 19's 'Death by Persuasion'. The decor is slightly changed but the same iconic Mies Van Der Rohe chair is clearly seen in both episodes.
- GoofsBarnaby tells someone that a recorded confession cannot be used because it constitutes entrapment, but this is not what entrapment means. Entrapment occurs when a law official encourages someone to break the law, not when they secretly record a confession. It is true that secret recordings by legal officials are also frowned upon in some (but by no means all) jurisdictions, but in this case the recorder was not a legal official, so the recording would most likely have been admissible.

Gerry Bleacher: [to bar owners Jez and Mary, while a bicycling race is broadcast on the big TV] There's wrestling on the other side. Do we have to watch this rubbish?
Mary Appleton: [seeing Jez smile] Don't encourage him, love.
Featured review
Sorry Midsomer - the magic has gone.
I have been a huge fan of Midsomer Murders and have the DVDs of almost all of the John Nettles episodes. The latest episode of Midsomer BREAKING THE CHAIN was (in my opinion) one of the worst episodes of this wonderful series I have watched. Even worse than the alien episode shown a couple of weeks ago. Last nights episode about cycle racing seemed to be all talk and quite frankly I lost interest. I didn't guess the murderer but that was probably because I wasn't paying the attention I should have. Gone are the quirky characters and the catchy soundtrack. There seems to be long scenes of talk with a complete absence of any soundtrack. What has happened to the theremin? The wonderful sound this instrument made added tension and anticipation to many scenes when a murder was about to happen. Sadly now gone.
John Barnaby and his wife do not have the same chemistry as Tom and Joyce Barnaby. The new DS Nelson is OK but I am not too impressed with the new young lady pathologist who appears to be a bit too full of herself. I thought the previous lady was better. Sorry Midsomer but perhaps your days are numbered.
