Not a classic episode of the New Agengers by any means. Steed and Gambit take a back seat as Purdy is in romantic mode. The story is Padding for a series that didn't really find its way. Interesting for pairing "Lewis Collins" and "Martin Shaw" in a Pre "Professionals" outing as the bad guys."Collins" is the surely hard man and "Shaw" is "Purdy's" ex paramour all love lorn and out for revenge. Maybe Shaw has the better acting chops than Collins. But at least Collins gets to say in his last line to Shaw "maybe we can work together again sometime" Fortuneate script or a knowing nod to the the future classic Bodie and Doyle combo? 6 out 10 for nerd value
