We continue the First Season of classic 1970's comedy "Soap"
This is Episode Sixteen with, now slightly changed, opening credits left in.
In this episode.....
Corinne meets her real mother, Ingrid Svenson, for the very first time.
Ingrid hires a German Private Detective, with lets just say very much an abrasive method.
His name - Heinrich Himmel - should give you an idea.
This has predictable consequences - his interviewing techniques going down especially badly with the Major and Benson.
Probably the least politically correct of all episodes so far - Himmel is particularly offensive to everyone - but I laughed so much at the brilliant timing on display - Benson was totally magnificent.
Chief of Police Tinkler finally names another suspect for Peter's murder.
Great episode, but if you are "woke" - be advised - you may choke on your muesli.
