Like All Done With Mirrors this is a real showpiece for Tara and Linda. She's so on top of her game. I love how she illustrates her point to Steed.
It's probably Burnham's best Avengers script. Don Chaffey had good and bad weeks on The Avengers but this is, like Burnham, his peak. It's such a confident episode of a show that has really found a new identity. Sadly the rush to finish episodes means that it isn't able to hold on to it.
I love the final fight in the boxing ring ("What a lovely suit" ).
10/10 |

10/10. An absolutely flawless episode. Not a wasted frame. No time filling here, every scene is crammed with action and relevant plot details. Terrific script and a wonderfully paced episode. One of the very best tag scenes is another bonus! Rich. |

10/10. This was one of the best Tara episodes I have ever seen. Good plot on how to incriminate Tara. Makes the viewer wonder at times whether Tara is guilty of joining the dark side. It was the best bit of framing since the Mona Lisa. At least according to Tara.
Fantastic fight scenes. Loved the villain with the beautiful suit. He was truly perfect looking and his boots blended into his outfit. A tailors dream.
And the best tag. Makes me want to open a bottle of champagne. _________________ "He likes his tea stirred anti-clockwise." |

7 from me. Like Mother's annoyance at the £200. _________________ Ron

Full marks for this one, I love it. I love how Tara makes her point, Mother's setting, the villain is (as he believes himself to be) truly superb. The final fight sequence is awesome, it can easily compete with the best of the Peel episodes 10/10. |

One of the best lines of the series when Tara exclaims she is framed better than the Mona Lisa. _________________ "He likes his tea stirred anti-clockwise." |

I thought this was "competent". A very good storyline well executed. For me it just lacked the quirkiness of a perfect Avengers episode.
8/10 |

I noticed Mother's more than annoyed behaviour (his mixture of feelings about Tara). Also this time round, we appreciated that having the villain based in a boxing ring was a nice touch - allowing the final fight scene, as a simple resolution of Mother's worries, to be really entertaining. Forever a good one. _________________ Ron
