Understated, fabulous performances from Jane Seymour as Harry and Rohan Nedd as Fergus, they make an odd couple: Harry a well-to-do, bored, retired lecturer with writer's block, Fergus a wrong-side-of-the-tracks, inquisitive, energetic schoolboy. Seymoure's ability was never in question, though Nedd is a relative newcomer; I fell in love with Fergus immediately with his opening schoolroom articulate and funny monologue which bamboozled and embarrassed his teacher.
Harry is an acerbic loner and mildly misanthropic with a sharp wit and intellect. Fergus is gregarious and empathetic with 'street smarts'. These two are crashed together as an investigative duo akin to another famous pair, though I am not sure if Fergus is Watson or represents the Baker Street Irregulars!
