You don’t cast Roy Marsden in an unassuming bird-watcher cameo and waste all that potential malevolence. Still, a woozy and concussed Tommy is discovered by Commander Haydock (who has been fairly quiet until now) and is helped back to the old naval man’s lodgings for a restorative glass of milk. And although I’m sure Denim gets a good work out lugging those crates of contraband hooch, it’s quite the stretch that he’d have hurled all 6ft 3in of Tommy Beresford over one shoulder and made off along the shale with him. It was the suspiciously German Mr Denim (Mr Pseudonym more like) with the blunt object in the smuggler’s tunnel.Īfter the titles, it becomes clear that Denim has dumped an unconscious Tommy further up the shoreline and scarpered to move his smuggled goods. If he really is done for, there’s no mystery. And so the Beresfords bow out, for this series at least, with a spectacular end-of-the-pier show featuring the death-plunge of their evil nemesis, a ticking bomb and a big Hollywood snog to finish.Īt the start of this final episode we rejoin a fretful Tuppence, staring out to sea, pining for the missing Tommy.
