More good work from Alan as Harry, plenty of good set ups for him to clown around with,so it was good to see the final episode of series 3 stay true to the central character and main topic. Series three has definitely been the better for it, just as series 2 suffered greatly for drifting from it.

There was even some decent plot with Kate strategizing how to save her lost child, but things did get a bit chaotic and hard to follow on the ship, but luckily some good comedy opportunities for Harry while there.

The last 3rd of this episode just flung as many plot elements at the screen as it could and it became hard to focus and take it all in and make sense of it.

Maybe they're not getting renewed and they wanted to go out with a bang?

Personally I thought series 3 on the whole was a solid step in the right direction, and reclaimed a lot of lost ground from series 2. I was going to abandon ship at the end of series 2 and a lot of people have noted as much in their series reviews. It felt like a completely different show and not one I would have ever bothered watching, but if there is a series 4 and they can keep up the good work they did to make series 3 mostly fun and funny, I'll come back for more.
