When the Baron comes to the aid of a frightened girl on a lonely country road, he suddenly loses 24 hours of his life. He has to piece together the puzzle of the maze in his mind and reach Jill before the gunman can stop him.
The Baron is similar to the Saint, very English in its style,but what makes it unique is that the hero - Mannering - is an American. Steve Forrest plays him, though he lacks the charm of the Saint ( Roger Moore), he still has a likebility and he's little more hard boiled. He is assisted by Paul Ferris as his sidekick.
Top notch episode which is intriguing from the beginning - the Baron comes to the rescue of a young girl who runs in front of his car, pursued by bad guys, and the next minute he crashes - he tells the police what happened but no one believes him, the car is at a different location and there's no gunshot shattered car window, and even the girl says that she never saw him. Of course, as viewers we know that's not the case, hence the intrigue is strong. There's definitely a reason this - which keeps us viewers gripped. Nice sequence in a maze, good action and an exciting climax. Sue Lloyd looks suitably bemused, thinking that the Baron has lost his marbles - she's convinced later.
