6/10
Hetty's undercover, with a dodgy accent.
Sleepin_Dragon19 January 2020
Hetty goes undercover with District Nurse Maureen, who's recently had her car vandalised, on an estate where crime is on the rise. Hetty is losing as Maureen's Irish Sister.

It's a decent episode, with a pretty good story, although some elements are more far fetched than are conceivable. I would have thought she'd have been rumbled after minutes, as her Irish accent is ...... shall we say questionable, unless Preston is now classed as Ireland?

Nice to see the Police finally seem to have faith in Hetty. You can see the efforts in the episode, to focus on a true to life problem, no outrageous criminal here, but a real life thug on an estate, is that really the area we want Hetty in? I'm not sure.

Darren Tighe is good as the villainous, young Lenny Fornber, definitely fits the part, cut from something nasty. His scene with Routledge is perhaps the best moment, exposing her to danger.

A surprise ending, but perhaps my least favourite thus far. 6/10
