The Avengers

Season 1, 1961 - Episode 22

Kill the King

by James Mitchell

Steed is assigned to prevent the assassination of King Tenuphon after one attempt fails. Major Harrington is already arranging a second try - the King will die from a sniper's bullet as he walks on his balcony. Steed does check for this eventuality, but the owner of the house opposite, Mrs Carter, does not arouse his suspicions. Steed's sixth-sense ensures that the King remains safe and the royal bodyguard disposes of Harrington.
