The burning wreck of Ed's car was a much older model with a vastly different body style than the one he drove away from the club in.

Fun episode

Having met his maker in an explosion in his car, retired villain Ed Brown leaves a posthumous film to several rival gangsters in his will, which is also viewed by Brown's daughter Penny, previously innocent of her father's criminality, and the inevitable Saint. The film claims that Ed has deposited a million pounds in a Swiss bank and that whoever can match it can claim the money.

This is a fun episode which features four gangsters - the rival to the late Ed Brown , and possibly his murderer - who are, as Stephanie Beecham's character calls, men from the chamber of horror. Actually they lend a lot of humour as a cartoon-like bunch who always at each other's throat. So how are they going to claim that one million? Well with The Saint to help them nab the bullion, they got a chance, but they don't know that he's going to get them arrested. Another funny scene is Teal, who is chomping on the bit to nab Templar and the gang, gets tricked ( no big feat there!!) and ends up with no clothes. A really humorous and enjoyable episode with a killer twist.
