I've been re-watching the Emma era and come across a few episodes that intrigue me a little.
For example the cases/episodes that started because Mrs Peel was in danger, rather than there being a murder/strange diabolical things happening.
Like "The House that Jack Built"; "The Joker"; "Epic"; "The Girl from Auntie".
Or those cases that involved friends of Mrs Peel, or Steed being in trouble.
Like "The Man-Eater of Surrey Green"; "The Hour that never was"; "Too many Christmas trees"; "The Superlative Seven"; "Murdersville" etc.
I know some of the stories were created because one of the leads were on holiday.
But my point to this discussion is the fact that Steed and Mrs Peel don't only investigate strange cases or murders, they also investigate their friends disappearing or dying etc.
This therefore suggests that they helped their friends solve these mysteries rather than cases that the "Ministry" just thrust upon them.
They weren't just agents they were lone investigators too

Does anyone else have any theories on this or is it just me?
Lots of brolly
