#TheNewAvengers 09 (1976) - 10/10
❝He needs a phrenologist like he needs a hole in the head.❞
An absolutely-superb adventure for #PatrickMacnee and his new partners.
Spy #GeorgeACooper (#GrangeHill) gets out of prison with a blackmail scheme in mind. But enemy agents accidentally kill him before they or anyone else knows what he has. Or where it is.
There follows a never-ending chase around the English countryside, with nothing but a salacious Western novel as a guide.
A clever, witty script by #BrianClemens with impressive action sequences and several satisfying twists. The dialogue/banter positively sparkles.
My 446th #TVReview of 2023. Averaging 2h17m of TV, per day.
