Poirot contemplates retirement, thinking he's finished, to lift his spirits, he and Hastings head take a break, and end up involved in a crime.
It's an episode for a cold and wet Sunday afternoon, it has that kind of sleepy vibe to it, not the most thrilling episode it must be said, but it's one to curl up with.
It's seemingly another of those episodes where Japp happens to be in the area, but we learn why he's in the area. The speech to the W.I. is worth seeing, it's fun seeing Poirot's reaction.
The subplot is entertaining enough, sweet as opposed to offering up any intrigue. The interplay between the main characters is the best thing about the episode, the mystery is slightly on the thin side to say the least, and that dream sequence does not work. Two of the worst getaway attempts you will ever see.
6/10
