Storyline

- TriviaThere is a hint of biographical detail concerning Fred Thursday in this story. At the start, he recalls his visits to the Mile End Rivoli cinema, when he would buy one ticket and then secretively hold open the window in the Men's Toilet so "Chaz and Billy" could get in for free. These two are not identified in the story, but the Inspector's brother appears later in the story and is called Charlie. At the end, when he calls Fred "the best of us". Fred replies that "the best of us didn't come back", implying that there was a third Thursday brother - Billy - killed during the Second World War.
- GoofsAt the scene of the burned office fire hoses of a rather modern type are rolled out as they have been used to extinguish the fire. But they are completely flat, that is they do not contain water. Such flatness can only be seen after the water has been pressed out as the hoses are rolled up. They have thus not been used.
- Quotes
DS Jim Strange: [rhetorically, as he reacts with anger to Dr. Shoukry's anti-British sentiments] They forget who built the Suez Canal in the first place!
DS Endeavour Morse: It was the French.

Featured review
Great Use of the Cinema as a Plot Element
In this one we are introduced to the show business of the time. The introduction of numerous interesting characters makes this priceless. It reminded me of a 1940's B movie where we are given a number of possible suspects, all of whom are viable.
