David Collier lands in Cyprus, to deal with his brother's death. Barry is seen driving over the edge of a cliff, but it was no accident.

it's a wonderful series, and it starts off particularly well. So many shows around this time were studio bound, and as a result look cheap. This looks exquisite even now. The scenery is dynamic and adds to the feeling of the show.

It plays out like a historical tragedy, well acted, and so much going on, that I'm already hooked. Excellent start. 8/10
