Continuity & Trivia

Have Guns - Will Haggle is one of those rare episodes with more than one title screen:

Just who is so obsessed with clowns?
We have:

• Maxie and Jennings in clown make-up in Look- (stop me if you've heard this one) but There Were These Two Fellers...,
• the gang of mercenaries wearing clown masks in Have Guns - Will Haggle,
• Merlin wearing a clown mask in The Morning After,
• and Miranda Loxton wears a clown costume for the first quarter of Requiem.

This episode is especially interesting as it gives us a glimpse of Tara Mark I, while John Bryce was still in charge of production. The producers wanted Thorson to be a blonde but the bleaching damaged her hair, forcing Linda to wear wigs; she's also slightly overweight. They try to disguise it by having her wear a large pink coat but the difference is obvious around 25:00 when she returns home, pink and plump, then emerges from the bedroom, dark and slim, in a brief little tartan outfit (see feature images 2 & 3).

When Steed visits Colonel Nsonga, he's listening to some of the music from Small Game for Big Hunters

The Transport

Who's Killing Whom?

There might be another death - when Tara is attacked in the warehouse, one of the mercenaries collapses as though he's shot by the other but we don't see enough to be sure.
