    Music is messed up!

    This is not about the actual episode, but for the whole of this season. Season 7. This show is famous for having lots of great 60's British rock playing in episodes. Not sure why, but in this season there are two songs playing at the same time, one over the top of the other! It is very disconcerting and annoying! I have to either fast forward or mute the scenes because my senses get overloaded listening to two songs at once. Years ago, I worked in a department store overnight and they let us listen to music. We could not use headphones,however, because they had to be able to communicate with us. Sometimes I would have to listen to someone playing rap in one aisle and country in another aisle. It drove me crazy! So this is my complaint about season 7. I do like the new Constable Mike. He is very handsome!
