Dial a Deadly Number

Top brass executives are dying, apparently of natural causes, Steed and Mrs Peel are have to hunt down a smart killer.

Another thoroughly enjoyable, well made episode. Once again they're going for the fat cat executives, the modus operandi when it's revealed, is absolutely brilliant, the story definitely holds your interest.

Once again, you'll see just how incredibly well produced this show was, it looks sumptuous yet again.

A couple of cornier than usual moments, the scene with the champagne cork was hilarious, but all of it was in keeping with the tone of the episode.

Mrs Peel seems to play the role of the damsel in distress a little more in this episode, but naturally she gives as good as she gets. She doesn't get so much of her tough and tumble here.

Clifford Evans and Anthony Newlands are both excellent, and it's really great to see a dashing young Peter Bowles, the acting from Macnee and Rigg is of course perfection.

8/10.
