'A Passing Opportunity' is another great episode

I know it doesn't come close to the creepiness of 'THE FLYPAPER' or 'THE LANDLADY' but there's something about 'A PASSING OPPORTUNITY' that has stayed with me since it was first aired. The pacing was spot-on (no filler) and same with the dialogue. There was just enough background story, to make the whole thing believable. And the pay off was satisfying (unlike a high majority of most other episodes)

Would be interesting to read what other TOTU fans think of this episode?

Just viewed the episode.
Certainly one of the best, but is rather dark and depressing.

I've not Long reviewed it, have a read and see if you agree, it is a very good episode, I find it just a little bleak.
