A pretty weak outing. Obviously it suffers heavily by Jeremy Brett's absence for 99% of the episode, which was sadly due to his failing health. The Garrideb sisters are enjoyably quirky but the main mystery about the stolen diamond is both uninteresting and poorly executed with some poor and distracting artistic direction - something season 7 as a whole really suffers from. An episode that will likely be skipped in future rewatches of the otherwise excellent series.
