Episode Rating

After a fall down the stairs in his apartment, Steed barely has the strength to tell Mrs Peel she's needed - to care for him!
She has already arranged to spend a weekend in Devon with a bastion of the Bridge world - Sir Cavalier Rusicana. Steed is told an old nemesis of the Avengers, Max Prendergast, has escape gaol in Germany and heading their way. Realising that his injury was no accident, Steed sets out for Devon, sure that Max is trying to kill them. Alone in a country manor, Emma is terrorised by the strange housekeeper and a disturbed young man, then nearly murdered by Prendergast, but Steed plays the joker - finishing the criminal's plans.
A relaxing game of solitaire interrupted by Mrs Peel, the Avengers trade card tricks - Mrs Peel not wanting to ruin the trick that produces a bottle of Bollinger.
