Steed takes Emma to a farewell party at RAF Hamelin, where he was stationed in the War. The camp is closing down and the officers being posted all over the world. Steed swerves to miss a dog on the road and crashes the car. They proceed on foot but when they get there the airfield is deserted, like the Marie Celeste. After seeing a milkman shot on a runway, a loud noise drives them to seek shelter and they are both knocked out.
Steed wakes, back in his Bentley. Has he dreamt it all? It certainly seems that way when he reaches the airfield to find the party in full swing and no time seems to have passed. If only he could find Mrs Peel... he finds her watch, which leads him to rescue her from the dentist's chair.
A little improbable considering the number of unconscious people the two villains have to move around in the deserted airfield, while avoiding the unexpected interlopers ( Steed and Mrs Peel), but a solid episode with a great shot of the deserted airfield, the mystery kept unraveled till the last few minutes and a milk cart ( how I miss them!). Roy Kinnear plays a tramp named Benedict Napoleon Hickey - the big fight was quite energetic with Steed laughing maniacally due to laughing gas.
