Trivia
Last episode in black and white.

Goofs
With the exception of the few that are opened, the jars of honey are really filled with water. The contents slosh around too much when handled or jostled to be as viscous as honey.

Quotes
Emma Peel: I'd like to send some honey to a friend. You can arrange that?
Bumble: Indeed I can. Bumble's honey encircles the globe. Nectar in Nyasaland, syrup in Sweden, honey in the Himalayas. You just give me the address and I dispatch first haste.

Emma in the harem

That's not the best episode of the whole series but it remains a rather amusing one, with the usual eccentric old man who gets killed. The spies trying to assassinate an Arab prince and the oriental atmosphere, reminding that this is a British series, UK and its colonial past...You have here more fun than real spooky or riveting scenes. It deserves to be seen though.
