It made up for the woeful stuff on Darrell. Though I agree Neil was great. and he had some good lines. I must say Darrell sounds quite chipper, albeit in a severely depressed kind of way, for somebody for whom there remains some doubt over whether his liver is irretrievably damaged. I suspect he'd be more vague and not quite with it if, a few days post-overdose,there really was some risk of long-term damage. Possibly a precursor to the Ambridge Miracle Recovery from Serious Illness/Accident Fairy calling by again. I hope Shula didn't shag the doctor again.
