Typical introduction episode which was slightly over acted in places.

This episode was all about introducing the characters and the personalities which they will have throughout the series.

For the most part it is an interesting tale of the search of Buddha's bowl which is said you give you what you need most.

Sidney and Nigel go to track it down and of course find it and restore it to the proper owners.

The main fault with this episode is the forced and overacted characters of certain roles. First episodes are always clunky, but with annoying acting it does tend to bring the episode down slightly. Thankfully the acting was much smoother is the following episodes.moreless

ADD TRIVIA
- The Buddha had fallen from his footings and lay flat against the ground - so why was the platform, inside his belly where the bowl was found, up the right way as they entered?
  
  It should have been sideways coming out of a back wall.
