- TriviaActor Ron Donachie plays Archie Duff, Colin Duff's father. Colin is played by actor Daniel Portman. Daniel Portman is Ron Donachie's son. So not only are they father and son, in this series they also play father and son. Incidentally, both are know for their previous roles in Game of Thrones, where they played Ser Rodrik Cassel (Ron Donachie) and Podrick Payne (Daniel Portman) though had no shared scenes and were of no relation.
- GoofsWhen Bel Richmond offers DC Murray wine, she says it Châteauneuf-du-Pape, however the wine is in a Bordeaux shaped bottle which is incorrect for this region. Rhone wines, especially this style use a heavy, dark, more squat bottle which is often embossed.

Featured review
Good start
So far, Emer Kenny (Bunty in Father Brown) has done a good job with this 'Unforgiven'-style script ie cold case that runs across the entire season. It isn't too graphic, with violence and gore mainly in the dark, little swearing and sex scenes off screen/no nudity, allowing the emphasis to be more about psychology etc. Whilst I understand Pirie being annoyed she only got the promotion because she is a woman, as a member of the public, I think it is better having a woman's perspective involved with the case. One thing I disagree with though is recommending women talk on the phone as they walk home - did that with my friend and she got mugged for her phone! Lots of viewers have people have complained about the poor sound balance, and we did have the volume up a bit higher than normal even though we always have the subs on, but much of the time I was looking down at my other task and followed the show fine, despite all the flashbacks, which were well done here.
