Guess Who's Coming To Pinner **SPOILERS**


Did anyone else think this was an extremely weak episode?

Arfur accidentally kills a Ronnie Biggs-type criminal (Michael Gambon) in a weak finale on Southend Pier and no-one bats an eyelid afterwards (including Arthur himself.)

A 'Class A' criminal is planning 'the biggest job ever' and theres only him and Arthur who know about it?? Come on!

Also how can somebody who dabbles in murky waters like Arthur be completely unaware that somebody he actually knew was such a big criminal?

It must have been rushed through as a 'filler' episode and a waste of Michael Gambon.

What do you lot think?

the episode is okay the ending is proper weak though, as are most of the endings in series 8, good to see a classy actor like gambon in minder
