I'm all for suspending my disbelief to a point but simple facts being
conveniently overlooked for the sake of ease of explanation can be
annoying! Boyd and Spence went to Dublin to track a suspect, and where
treated in Ireland as superior officers and referred to as 'Sir'. At
one point Boyd said to the chap he was after that he was a Police
Officer - well not in the Republic of Ireland he isn't! Fair enough if
this was Northern Ireland Ireland, but Dublin is in the Republic of
Ireland and is totally independent from Britain! Boyd and Spence would
have had absolutely no jurisdiction there the same way they wouldn't
have in France or Spain! Was this laziness on the part of the writer as
it was easier to gloss over it, or, worse still, ignorance on the part
of the writer? Otherwise - excellent as usual!
