Common ground with Steed then - I wonder if they both cut out the Wild West scenes?

I felt the same when I watched "Lovejoy" the other night and Anthony Valentine was in it as a suspect but turned out not to be a villain for once. As to Annete Andre, her Facebook and web page are worth following; she's doing a lot for the anti-ivory-poaching movement.

Yes, he seems to be lying back and wincing a bit too leisurely. "Oh dear, how awful. Girls fighting each other. I can hardly bear to watch ... I wish I had some popcorn"

It's been a favourite of mine ever since. This is, probably for me, the episode most typical of the 60's series. I mean it has Terence Alexander from The Town of No Return for goodnes sake.

There are quite a few "doppelgangers" from the 1960s series:

Terence Alexander, The Town of No Return and The Correct Way to Kill and Love All;

Dinsdale Landen, All Done with Mirrors;

Michael Latimer, A Touch of Brimstone and The Positive Negative Man;

Melissa Stribling, Hunt the Man Down and School for Traitors;

Hedger Wallace, Death Dispatch.

Plus Anthony Bailey, from a previous TNA episode: House of Cards.

About 40 seconds into this clip.

Ah, there she is. I always smirk a little when she sees Steed trying to inflict pain on himself, and cocks her head a little, as if to say, "Well, that can't be right."

Someone on the video commented that we never see Gambit do anything with Pamela at the end, so theoretically she could go and turn the maze back on after he was gone. This used to bother me, too, but presumably he stuck her in a closet or something off-screen before he left.

i sorta thought that as well...i.e. Gambit doing 'something'..

The video ran on to the start of Purdey's notorious little catfight there, and now I'm eyeing all the angels for someone else who looks familiar (other than Caroline Munro, obviously). There's one that, probably not coincidentally, looks a bit like Farrah Fawcett, but I get the funny feeling it's not her. I suspect Gambit enjoys watching Purdey fight a little more than he should.
