Another fine episode of “Vera”, with a truly twisty-turny plot that keeps you on your toes. Every year I wait patiently for the next season, and I dread the day when Blethyn hangs up her overcoat and olive-green scarf for good. I’ll miss the superb cast, which has of course changed somewhat over the many years, but has somehow remained a wonderful, close-knit cohesive unit which, with the zeal of a hunter’s dog, never stops until every tiny aspect of the crime has been investigated and the facts sussed out. When the mystery is fully unraveled, Vera’s team (Kenny, Aiden, Mark, and Jac) as well as we the viewers, feel like the long, sometimes red herring-filled journey was well worth all the effort. All the legwork, interviews, and long hours paid off. This episode in particular had TONS of things going on. Loved it.
