After quite some time away I wasn’t surprised by the rough start, and the fact the change in scenery was a little off-putting. But there was enough in the episode to bring me back onto the Lasso pitch and reignite my interest to even visit previous scenes and episodes. 

The charm and humour are still present, perhaps a tad disjointed from the distance we’ve had with the show, but nothing the future episodes could possibly re-click into place.
