A married man is having an affair and his wife finds out. After the dust has settled he finds a video tape of his lover's kidnapping, delivered before she was thrown off the estate by his wife. It seems like his lover was trying to con him into handing over ransom money but who can explain how her hair grew back so quickly as it was clearly cut off in the video?
A fairly dull, uneventful episode of Jonathan Creek. Most tellingly, there's no murder or even really a major crime just a man wondering how his lover's hair grew back so quickly. Once I realised that this was the extent of the mystery for the episode my interest dropped dramatically.
There's a few light-hearted sub-plots to pass the time: Jonathan gets a girlfriend and she literally treats him like a dog, Carla takes a dim view of her gynaecologist after finding a rap CD in his office, Jonathan needs a puppet as a prop. Of these only the girlfriend one was reasonably interesting and then only because it featured Tamsin Greig as the girlfriend.
It's all pretty lame, like writer David Renwick couldn't be bothered about the quality for a week.
