Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaHector Bridges wears the regimental tie of the Royal Irish Fusiliers. It would be a question as to whether he served in that unit, because it was amalgamated in 1968 (with the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers and the Royal Ulster Rifles) and thenceforth was known as the Royal Irish Rangers.
- GoofsWhen Barnaby and Troy arrive at the house where Hector and the major are planning their action, it is dark. After a brief discussion, they leave the house, when it is now daylight.

D.C.I. Tom Barnaby: You reported it the first time it happened, seven years ago, when you were married to him. And you, Mr. Saxby, were married to Jenny Bridges, which makes you Fleur's father.
Will Saxby: It's no secret. You could ask anyone in the village.
D.C.I. Tom Barnaby: Yeah, I'm just showing off.

On the Move, Literally
A group of "travelers," which Americans would probably call Gypsies, gets permission to set up on the grounds of large home. The neighbors are aghast and begin to protest. Soon a former military man/vigilante takes on the task of bringing his "soldiers" to drive these people away. Granted, they are pesky and annoying, stealing small livestock and racing their horses around the estate, but most of the village enjoys them in small doses. When the aforementioned man is killed, of course, it falls on them. An interesting aspect is that not only do the neighbor's abhor this guy, but his wife goes on without much emotion. There is also a daughter seems largely affect by one particular fellow, whom we find out has a connection to the house and the victim. Barnaby and Troy have a light touch in this one because they have a respect for the underdog and see these people livening things up. Of course, they warn them that they have limited patience. A subplot is Barnaby not fitting into a suit and being force to diet. Troy is given the task of riding herd on him, checking his lunch bag and harassing him. A nicely plotted episode with a neat, complex ending.
