For instance, Hot Snow features Robert James (admittedly, not where we can see him!). Robert appeared twice in Doctor Who. As Lesterson in Patrick Troughton's premiere, Power of the Daleks (1966), he discovered some of the dormant pepperpots and planned on using them as a race of servitors. You can ...

Thank you, Darren, Jasper and M! Incidentally, Stratford Johns and Phillip Locke would appear opposite one another again some 21 years later, in the Doctor Who story Four to Doomsday . There, as here, Johns is practically Locke's boss in both stories... About 18 months ago, I began collating a list ...

1.15 The Frighteners (or, A Not-So Happy Ending) Starring Ian Hendry and Patrick Macnee Steed enlists Keel to help him blow apart the Deacon's 'massage' business.

Who is the woman in bindings? Why is Keel chasing a clown? Will Carol get her circus programme? The Good Anoth...

Thanks for the kind words! The Avenger-ness score relates to how well the episode does in representing the intentions of the production team of the time. For instance, the Keel episodes were designed to give a new kind of crime show- interesting and unique crimes solved through intelligence. This is...

1.1 Hot Snow Starring Ian Hendry and Patrick Macnee After a package of heroin is accidentally dropped off to the wrong doctor's office, and attempts to retrieve it fail, the criminals resort to desperate means. This spells trouble for Dr David Keel and his fiancé, Peggy. PLOT: 7 DIRECTION: 8 DIALOG...

Having just got my mitts on the newly released Optimum set of Series 2 (and the surviving eps of Series 1), I've decided to have myself a little marathon. I'll be scoring each episode out of 100, with scores out of ten in ten different categories: PLOT measures whether the story is interesting, well...
