Mrs. Peel is invited to a bridge party at a house on Exmoor but when she arrives she discovers that she has been lured there by a man known as 'The joker'. She had once helped to put him in prison, but he has now escaped and with his two crazy accomplices, subjects Mrs. Peel to a series of lethal tricks and traps as Steed arrives to help her. Emma Peel has been invited to spend a weekend with one of the country's leading bridge players, Sir Cavalier, at his country estate in Exmoor as he admired her recent article on the game published in a magazine. But as Steed has injured his leg falling down the stairs in his apartment, she has to make the journey alone. On her arrival she meets Sir Cavalier's dotty ward Ola (Sally Nesbitt) who tells her that her host will not be back until later that evening. In fact, the whole thing was designed to lead Emma into a trap by a madman called Max Prendergast (alias The Joker) (Peter Jeffrey) who has escaped from jail and is seeking revenge on Emma for putting him away. Meanwhile, Steed discovers that his fall down the stairs was no accident and he narrowly avoids death at the hands of another of the Joker's booby traps, a poisoned razor blade attached to a Joker playing card that claims the life of Steed's colleague Major George Fancy (Norman Stone) instead. Prendergast is hiding somewhere in the old house and is playing mind games with Emma before he finally confronts and kills her. However, Steed has by now seen through the madman's scheme and despite his leg, he drives up to Exmoor battling thick fog just in time to foil Prendergast's quest for vengeance...

THE JOKER (first aired on 29 April 1967) is a remake of the 1963 Honor Blackman episode, DON'T LOOK BEHIND YOU. The story was reworked because the producers wanted the story to be shown for the American market -in 1963 the series hadn't yet cracked the American TV stations. Writer Brian Clemens reworked his original script retaining all the original characters such as the nutty Ola whose in league with Prendergast and the strange young man (played in this version by Ronald Lacey) sent by the former to taunt Emma and subsequently bumped off in nasty fashion after he has fulfilled his purpose. Also in the original, the villains name was Martin Goodman (played by Maurice Good) and he didn't carry the alias of The Joker. The only extra character is Norman Stone's Major George Fancy who warns Steed of Prendergast's escape and ultimately falls victim to his lethal booby trap meant for Steed.

All in all, THE JOKER is technically superior to the original as it was shot on film whereas DON'T LOOK BEHIND YOU was made when the series was videotaped. The story doesn't quite create the level of high tension and hysteria that it seeks in either version, but director Sidney Hayers more than makes up for this with bags of atmosphere achieved through Alan Hume's cinematography (he subsequently worked on the James Bond series) and Laurie Johnson's incidental music is first class. In summary, the new version is more effective in that respect than its predecessor and does not look as dated and primitive. Macnee and Rigg play their roles as Steed and Emma with their usual authority and the small supporting cast is good with Peter Jeffrey (a familiar face in several Avengers episodes) standout as the mad Prendergast. "The Joker" was the second of three superior color remakes of Cathy Gale episodes, this one a rewrite of "Don't Look Behind You," all better suited for Emma Peel, who was quite often featured alone against obsessed madmen. While the original has Steed driving Cathy to the desolate country house, here he is injured falling down the stairs, no accident as his steps were rigged for a fatal fall (suffering only a bad bruise). The pretense of getting Mrs. Peel to drive herself out to the mansion (nicely decorated with symbols of playing cards) is an invitation from a distinguished bridge enthusiast about her recent article on the game's finer points. Once there, she is told that he won't be back until later by Ola (Sally Nesbitt, "Bizarre"), who claims to be his ward (the same annoying character that greeted Cathy). Called away to see a sick friend, she leaves Mrs. Peel alone in the house, until a stranger (Ronald Lacey, "Legacy of Death") arrives to use the phone, only to discover the line has been cut. Meanwhile, the injured Steed receives a visit from Major George Fancy (John Stone, "The Secrets Broker" and "The Rotters"), who informs him that one of Emma's most ardent foes (Peter Jeffrey) has escaped from a German prison, and has a few deadly card tricks up his sleeve (especially an unfunny joker intended for Steed). All the changes make for a better show, even if the insufferable Ola again makes a lousy host for our heroine. The conclusion is more satisfying, as the unspoken bond between Steed and Emma is light years deeper than the one he had with Cathy Gale, whose final showdown nearly brings her to tears (unlike the more experienced Emma, who remains reluctant to pull the trigger on her crazed suitor, Max Prendergast). Previously seen in "Room Without a View," Peter Jeffrey excels as the mad Max, and would be back for more the next year in "Game." For the only time in color, Diana Rigg appears partially undressed, in a brief sequence before the mirror (she often supplied eye candy during the previous, black and white season). 7cb1d79195
