The Avengers

Series 1, 1961 - Episode 14

The Springers

by John Whitney and Geoffrey Bellman

If you have the money, escape is easy from prison. Steed wants to know how, so he sends Dr Keel inside. Keel's information leads Steed to a finishing school, but he is captured. Keel arrives after a successful escape, but is exposed as an impostor. It is nearly the finish for Steed and Keel, but they outwit Neame and his associates.
