After being unexpectedly pulled into The Hub, where he was introduced to his new boss, the deeply unpleasant Mr Smith, two concerning pieces of news were laid before him: Chief Superintendent Woods, who was Shipton Abbott police's only real ally at the top, had left, and Humphrey would need to lose a member of his team due to funding cuts.
Asking Humphrey to layoff Esther, Kelby and Margo is like asking him to banish one of his children. Not only are they a solid team professionally – "I think everyone's so important, and everyone plays their part. And if you remove just one person, you really feel it," actor Zahra Ahmadi told Radio Times – their relationships extend beyond the professional.
“And Humphrey knows, as well as it being a tug at his heart strings to have to get rid of someone that he really cares about and values professionally, he also knows how that will impact the policing they're able to do, which is also what he really cares about."
Martha's mum, who's recently become a local councillor, crossed paths with Mr Smith on the golf course, which resulted in her being given a seat on the police and crime panel. So, she'd been spending some time in the office, shadowing Humphrey, observing the rest of the team, and lending a hand where needed – which Margo wasn't thrilled one joy about.
Will Anne prove to be a help or a hindrance? The jury's still out – although we have a feeling it could be the latter.
"It's delicate, it's about James Smith," she explained. But that was enough to get Humphrey all fired up and shut the conversation down.
Deep breaths, Humphrey.
