Minutiæ

Stanely's character says he's "more interested in what is than what was" in response to learning that Cathy is an anthropologist, and clearly mistakes it for archaeologist, but Cathy doesn't disabuse him on it.

Brian is pleased when Steed observes that the propulsion unit of the new ship is no larger than that of a nuclear submarine, despite hauling twenty times the tonnage.

Electra syndrome or fluffed line? Waldner, being close and intimate with Cathy when asking her if she'd like to live with him, calls her 'Ros'.

Waldner's safe has the combination: 16 clockwise, back to 2, forward to 33 again.

I've listed no transport above, but there is a scene where Steed gets into Cathy's car, but the 'car' is so obviously just a couple of seats, a steering wheel and backdrop - i.e. a set and not a car at all - that I've decided it doesn't qualify.
