9/10
Unconscious Rabbits.

Steed and Mrs Peel arrive at an air base for a closing down party, but when they get there nobody is to be seen.

It's a very similar vibe to the series opener 'Town of no return,' I was also put in mind of The Tommyknockers from Stephen King, writer Roger Marshall really does mess you about with this one, it's creepy, it's surreal, it's wonderfully mysterious, and you are made to wait til the very end to learn what's going on.

I loved the way they kept the mystery going throughout, the music really does have a part to play.

The best moment has to be when Steed wakes up back in the car, it's a great twist. You start questioning what's happening, it's so good.

Fantastic visuals once again, it is visually flawless, this series was amazingly well produced.

Roy Kinnear is delightful as Hickey, he plays the part so well.

9/10.
