A Canadian plane crashes under mysterious circumstances in Ireland. Steed's leads take him to the Shamrock airport and a convent, while Dr. King performs autopsies on the dead passengers hoping to find a clue pointing to the wreck's cause. Looking back at the early episodes of "The Avengers" is like looking at a completely different kind of series. Beside Patrick MacNee as John Steed there is nothing to remind you of what would become a cult classic, the British tongue-in-cheek humor, the artificial look, the mix of old and brand new fashions, the science fiction elements, and so on. Instead, we see many things which were completely forbidden from the Emma Peel-episodes onwards.

1. This installment starts out with a veritable plane crash that causes 38 deaths. After Emma Peel (EP for the rest of this review) entered the series such a mass murdering would have been impossible.

2. One stewardess survives only to be strangled later. From EP onwards no females get murdered (with one exception in a late EP episode).

3. We see practically no single outdoor scene although the whole story takes place in a secluded part of Ireland. (Later, in strong contrast to the outlandish stories, the series sports many real landscapes and outdoor scenes. Just think of the first episode with EP, "The Town with no Return".)

4. Speaking of Ireland, foreign locations are more the rule in the early episodes than an exception. (Although we hardly get to see much of it.) After EP appears not a single story has a location outside of England (although some play with the illusion of taking place somewhere else, e.g. "African Summer").

5. This particular episode has a strong connection to Canada, which is also the case with other early episodes. The reason could be that Patrick MacNee worked as an actor and producer in Canada before he started in "The Avengers".

6. Religion was a no-no theme in the EP and Tara King episodes, here we have a convent and "nuns" with guns.

7. Steed has no female companion here but instead a male one, a Dr. King, which appears in three episodes.

In this episode we also have a rare personal comment by John Steed, telling that he flew a Lancaster throughout the war. This is picked up in the EP episode "The Hour that never was".

Overall, "Dead on Course" has many surprises for people who think they know what is coming. One drawback is the fact that all pre-EP episodes were videotaped and not filmed. The used film only for outdoor scenes and videotaped that later which looks simply awful! The scenes are sometimes oddly connected, when the stewardess got murdered, Dr. King and Steed are very relaxed that their only witness is death. For a few seconds one even believes that they have not found out yet! The ending is very fast paced, one hardly gets any answer to too many questions. There are no fight scenes and one explosion is happening off screen. But maybe this was a common thing in a 1962 TV series. On the other hand, John Steed already has some of his later antics, like joking about drinks with pub personnel. Worth seeing! The second episode for Jon Rollason's Dr. Martin King, "Dead on Course" was the last of the three to be broadcast, set mainly at an isolated convent on the Irish coast, where a suspicious plane crash reveals the pilot to have been strangled to death, but the air hostess still alive. Steed calls in Dr. King to look after things at the convent while he investigates the missing money that disappeared from the plane. Steed and King spend most of the episode working separately, and third billed John McLaren is hardly on screen in a small role as the airport official who grants Steed complete freedom. Played with deadly seriousness by a mostly dull cast, Donal Donnelly easily stands out as an informer from the local pub, with Liam Gaffney (1966's "Island of Terror") behind the bar as the suspicious owner, whose public telephone has a secret connection to the convent. Donnelly went on to bigger and better things, nominated for a 1966 Tony Award for his Broadway work, and among his rare film ventures were features directed by John Ford and Francis Ford Coppola (1990's "The Godfather Part 3"). "The Sell-Out" would be Rollason's farewell appearance, although televised before this one (Honor Blackman would debut in the season's fourth episode, "Death Dispatch"). 646f9e108c
