The notion of being a sex slave is appealing to some. Be careful what you wish for. The slaves in this episode quickly find out that the high demands far exceed their capabilities.
Martin Amisless is a fun send up of Martin Amis the author by Keith Allen. Writing the novel in the sex dungeon was funny. Keith was great as he was in the previous ep.
Peter Richardson turns in a very good James Bond impersonation. There could have been a sequel, he was that good.
The concept is quite clever and there was probably room for more humour but what's there is certainly a lot more entertaining than other episodes.
Ironically there's quite a few messages about men needing to step up to improve their outlook on women, and they parody James Bond quite a lot on this point, yet are quite happy to imitate a Japanese woman in a pretty derogatory fashion (by Jennifer Saunders) which, even at the time, doesn't pass the litmus test.
Great sets, US stock footage and a thrilling finale with some of M's sexy gadgets really coming through to help save the day make this a pretty enjoyable experience though clearly not one of the better episodes.
