This delightful gem of an episode transports us back in time to the great fun days of the 1980's where the year Y2K was merely a distant pipe dream.
I had just passed my driving test at 17 and owned a blue Triumph Herald convertible, pretending to be Sonny Crockett from Miami Vice. Complete with pink jacket and espadrills - In rural Essex! LOL.
Anywho, in this 'Tales of the Unexpected' episode, written by Ella Griffiths, sees the delectable Miss Glynis Barber playing an air hostess, Oh there is a lord....How pretty is she? Wow.
Filmed just after Dempsey and Makepeace suffered it's untimely and unfortunate end, one can certainly recognise certain characteristics of Sergeant Harriet Makepeace in this episode.
However, many new emotions, never seen on D&M, make a welcome appearance to showcase Miss Barber's multi talented acting abilities.
In real life, Glynis hasn't actually got a twin sister but a younger one called Angela.
I recorded this live on my parent's clunky black ITT VHS recorder back in 1988 and then 25 years later onto DVD when I 'embraced' the internet and YooToob.
