A fantastic season opener!

There's no doubt there will be the usual dismissive reviews of this season opener, and no doubt the whole season. But this was excellent. A great whodunnit which keeps you guessing to - nearly the end.

Not too many suspects left considering there were 3 deaths but I still wouldn't have had the murderer as my first choice. Great pacing and probabilities as it goes through, with all the murders not being who you except to be murdered.

*I seriously don't understand how Betty is so tall. To my calculations for when she was born in the series she should only be 8, maybe 9 at the most. But she looks more like 11, even 12.

Anyway I've filled up enough space because of the silly rule about minimum words. But to end this is truly a great episode. I hope they will all be as great.
