Minutiæ
The bout with Tiger was supposed to last a minute but timekeeping in the Sixties wasn't that good - the bell rings at 10:57 and they strike gloves at 11:00, but at 12:00 Steed announces he still has 10 seconds to go - Joey goes down at 12:08, gets back up, and Steed rings time at 12:13.
Charlie Horton is described as having fled the country after making 'a mistake' - by which is meant he fixed a fight and was found out.
The 'Models from the Kenneth Sweet Collection' appear when Steed views the wardrobe Fernand has designed for him. They're preceded by Angela - played by Julie Paulle - (in a dress of cricket flannel with a matching stole - Sted exclaims, "Cricket flannel for the evening?" and Fernand replies, "Why not? it's very chic; it flares gently at the hem").
then they appear in the following order:
- Elaine Little (black and white gingham dress in an entertaining 'bush' style - to which Steed says "Happy Safari!");
- June Hodgson (turquoise evening dress and coat in heavy woven linen);
- Diane Keys (not announced by Fernand, who's interrupted by Brown, but she's wearing a woolen tunic and spotted tie with matching hat).
Steed claims he wants to buy a wardrobe consisting of "an evening dress, a couple of cocktail dresses, two day suits, accessories of course, naturally". Denise smirks when he seems too familiar with his "niece's" measurements - 34-24-36, 5'4"
44:57 - someone coughs backstage just as Steed leads the villains away at gunpoint.
45:35 - terrible direction in the final fight scene - Cathy is beating up Harry, but we cut two a shot of two chairs, which we hold for several seconds before Tiger crosses in front of them and takes on Joey.
