    • Quotes

      Emma Peel: Frankly, when I read your card, I didn't expect, eh...

      Bert Smith: Ah, it was the name that fooled you. It always does. Bert Smith. Actually, it's Bertram Fortescue Winthrop Smythe, to be absolutely accurate. Had to change it of course.

      Emma Peel: Of course...

      Bert Smith: Firstly, it was too long to go on the card, and such a name is a terrible disadvantage in this business. After all, whoever heard of anyone having they're chimney swept by a Fortescue Winthrop Smythe? Haha.

      Emma Peel: [laughs] Who indeed?

    CHASING UFOs
    A string of deaths of astrologers motivates an investigation by Emma and Steed, the bodies show strange signs of premature aging. An organization of astronomers assures that they are attacks produced by inhabitants of the planet Venus. An excellent start to the season with color, suspense, and as always a logical response to the mysterious facts.
