Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis episode has two actors who would go on to have eternal associations with the James Bond series. As well as Sir Roger Moore, there is also Shirley Eaton, who would play Jill Masterson in Goldfinger (1964), the Bond girl with the most famous death of all: covered head to toe in gold paint. Eaton would make three further appearances in The Saint.
- GoofsWhen Mrs. Jafferty delivers the parcel from the butcher to Adrienne Halberd, she takes all the packages out of her shopping bag and places them on the table, until she finds the correct one. The small tin can that Adrienne palms, just as Mrs. Jafferty prepares to leave, appears in front of her parcel of meat in the wide shot, but at the end of the parcel in the close-up.
- Quotes
[first line of the show]
Simon Templar aka The Saint: [to the viewers] Thank heavens for English theatre bars - we've had 2 acts of this play, complete suffering both onstage... and off. I don't know what your tastes are in theatre, maybe you like the... sweat and the grunt school of acting. Me, I come to the theatre for fun, for laughs, for excitement.

Poor Madge is confined to her bed after a household accident (?) and her husband discourages all visitors. A suspicious Simon is assisted by a female insurance investigator-played by "Goldfinger''s" Shirley Eaton. The other notable thing being the tight pants Eaton wears in a sequence midway through the episode.
There are enough early clues to tip most viewers off to the mystery, but even in the absence of suspense it is very interesting to watch as the intricate murder plot unfolds.
