This was part of a comedy drama series co-produced by London Weekend Television, TF1, and American Television. It followed a fictional travel show hosted by bickering British (Christopher Casanove) and American (Margaret Whitton) presenters. In this episode, they visit Malta and become embroiled in a plot to assassinate a diplomat. It's fun, shows Malta before it joined the EU and got modernised, and features an early role by Tim Roth.
The series was called 'A Fine Romance' in the USA and other countries, but in the UK the name was changed as we already had a successful comedy drama with that name starring Judi Dench.
My apologies for the sub-standard video quality as I had poor television reception at that time, and the copy from VHS made it worse.
