I agree that the acting and the casting were brilliant. Only one thing, though, Harriet Walter and Edward Petherbridge have such a similarity to their faces and facial expression that one could almost believe the were brother and sister. It's probably cultural, a set of expressions that are popular among the educated classes in Britain or something like that. There is a similar similarity between the husband and wife characters in the movie Fargo, that is, the devious yet unsuccessful car salesman and his hapless, kidnapped wife, have, again, such similar faces that they could almost be brother and sister...but it's really only that, as actors, they are both copying really well the local speech patterns and facial expressions of a certain set in Minneapolis, Minnesota, that are so distinctive as to seem almost genetic to someone from far away. ( She fibbed.) The acting really is wonderful. And the casting is wonderful if we just assume the characters might be first cousins, who are perfectly well allowed to fall in love and marry, just not half-sibs.

All the actors including those in minor roles are very good.

This is one of the problems with women ... they THINK they will find "a Lord Peter" ... and are then dissatisfied with "Joe Average". Disney and their propaganda are to blame for this quite a bit (they only ever have girls be "princesses" while boys get to be "the joke"), but a large part is the general "women cant be bad" attitude of society, which lets them get away with "murder" many times (like all the false #metoo accusations) without any consequences. One of the online partner-search sites asked their female clients to rate pictures of men ... and the women judged 80% of them to be "below average" ... while the men judging women had a rather "average average" in comparison. Maybe teach your daughters to NOT EXPECT GETTING A PRINCE? It is women who are responsible for education of children after all ... even with feminism and equality.

And it's quite clear the head Sergeant is not too happy about that him being there and his soon-to-be fiance involved to crack another casein the case.
