Notes
ADD NOTES-
Dalziel: Give us your car keys.
Once Dalziel eventually gets the keys to Pascoe's car he drives it for the rest of the episode. Edit - In one scene early on we see Nicki watching a film. It is the black and white film version of Arthur Conan Doyle's literary character 'Sherlock Holmes.' The film adaptation was of the 'Hound of the Baskervilles' a fitting link to this episode that features a canine beast called a Barguest. Edit
- Pascoe says in the barn that he has seen similar dog fighting set ups before in Bradford. Edit
