The Avengers

Season 1, 1961 - Episode 18

Double Danger

by Gerald Verner

Two thieves steal valuable diamonds, but one is shot as he escapes. Steed has no clues, until Carol decyphers a call for help from Dr Keel: he is being forced to treat the wounded man. The man dies, but gives Keel "Bartholomew's Plot" as a clue to the location of the hidden diamonds. Keel is forced to reveal this clue to the gang or they will kill Carol, but Steed already has the diamonds by the time they arrive at Bartholomew's cottage. The police wrap-up the case as the Avengers go to dinner.
