- Quotes
DCI Fred Thursday: You're a third division shake-down artist and fourth-rate ponce. Always were, always will be. If there's any comeback over Joey, I'll have your cobblers for a key-fob. Mind how you go.
- Crazy creditsIn the closing credits after the actors' names have cycled through, certain letters of the crew's names are colored red. In order, these red letters spell out "Artemisia Gentileschi," the name of the notable female painter of "Judith and Holofernes," which is directly referenced in this episode. Artemisia Gentileschi was raped by one of her father's associates, who then refused to marry her. Gentileschi's father brought the associate to court, and although the man was found guilty and banished from Rome, the order was never enforced. Artemisia Gentileschi later painted three variations on the Judith and Holofernes story. It is widely accepted that she was expressing her desire to punish the man who raped her through the subject of these paintings.

My husband's an idiot! He's not a killer!
This was a particularly good ep. Seeing Morse challenged as a young man by attractive, available women is interesting and revealing. Next to Neverland,S2, this is my fave thru S5. The costumes, 70s milieu, gory murders make it a stand out. The resolution is more preposterous than usual but that's not a bad thing.
