The sheep make rather excellent detectives, especially when they work together and remember to be polite. I think Mr. Curry would've worked very well with their team - his neighbourhood watch experience would've helped move the investigation along.I laughed a great deal, although Mr. Brown insists I gasped far louder than necessary during the final reveal.
