It would seem that in his anxiety to have a dig at Sherlock, David Renwick forgot what it is that made Jonathan Creek a success in the first place. We all want to try and solve the mystery before Jonathan, but not by seeing the solution right at the start.
I'll be back next week in the hope that we'll get a better episode and a better mystery, but lots of others may not be so patient. I can sadly see it take quite a big hit in the ratings.
edit: Just saw the post above Gogglebox. Forgot that was back next week. So that will be the main benefactor of tonight's disappointing episode of Creek.
