Is there anything good about this episode? It's all so run of the mill, the only good scene is Steed dealing a blow to one of the misguided blackmailers.

continuity and trivia

Steed's steed in this episode was ridden by Laurence Olivier in Henry V.

Prior to the filming of this episode, Diana Rigg had never ridden a horse, and was reportedly terrified the first day of filming. A few bruises, and some swift lessons, and she was back in the saddle and they completed filming.

This episode is unusual, in that it shows one of our normally invincible heroes badly wounded.
