Successville's unique and loveable detective DI Sleet enlists the help of a celebrity sidekick to solve the latest high-profile murder in this improvised comedy murder mystery series.

In this episode, DI Sleet is joined by Pussycat Doll Kimberly Wyatt. The detectives learn that there has been a murder down at Successville Hospital, where Dr Wayne Rooney has been bandaged to death. Forensic pathologist Lana Del Rey shows them the body, and Kimberly takes note of any clues that might help them solve the case.

Kimberly is put through her paces as she and Sleet meet three suspects:

Nurse Adele - everyone's favourite nurse at the hospital, but was her relationship with Rooney really as rosy as she claims? How will she react to the bad news of her boyfriend's death?

Dr Obama - Sleet attempts to kill two birds with one stone as they interview their next suspect. Kimberly takes charge of questioning the doctor, while Sleet gets a rather personal medical check-up.

Dr Bob Geldof - helped by his trusty sidekick, anaesthetist Andy Murray, Dr Geldof is one of the most respected surgeons in Successville. Was competition from Rooney motive enough for murder? Can Kimberly go undercover as a surgeon to find out?

After meeting all three suspects, it's time for Kimberly to decide - who killed Dr Wayne Rooney? As ever in Successville it's a matter of life and death as Kimberly attempts to catch a killer. Have you been paying attention? Did you spot enough clues to work out who the killer was? Show less
