It's a case for Detective Chief Inspector Alma Blair, the Alpha Detective, her sergeant Jason Trotter, and Jo Blake the crime scene manager. Watch how the women behave towards each other. Rivals? Not quite. There may even be a barely detectable flirtatiousness between them.

Not for me. I had no clue what was going on and quickly found I had lost concentration in listening. Doesn't grab the listener. Non funny and uninteresting.
