A strong episode.

It's funny how two cases always spring up at The Lyell at the same time, for Leo it's a case where a young boy is tragically found dead, for Nikki, it's a dead Priest.

It's an interesting episode, made at a time where the BBC acknowledged that despite us being one nation, there are cultural differences between within our communities, Leo is drawn into such a world, believing the unfortunate young boy was part of a muti ritual.

Quite a dark story, it's pretty bleak in all areas, fortunately Harry added a bit of humour, when he joked about the man being four timed.

Steve Toussaint is excellent as The Pastor, a wall of charisma, he's excellent. Always good to see Diana Kent.

It's a strong, imaginative, pretty daring episode, 8/10.
