Steed has been having bad dreams involving Christmas trees and a man dressed as Santa Claus. At a party given by publisher and Dickens fan Brandon Storey, two telepathic spies attempt to read Steed's mind and make sense of the dream. However, the dream is echoed exactly by the events of the party, enabling Steed to spot the villains in advance and identify the dangerous Santa.
As this episode opens Steed is having a strange dream; he is walking through a forest of Christmas trees and meets a distinctly creepy Father Christmas who takes him to the body of a colleague. When he wakes up Mrs Peel informs him that the colleague had died in his sleep. It seems like a very odd coincidence; especially given the fact that the two of them were the only people to know certain secrets that had recently leaked
of course we soon learn that it wasn't; they were part of a sinister experiment into telepathy. He continues to be tired and have strange dreams and these too start to come true when he attends a Dickensian themed party in the country with Mrs Peel. While here his dreams become worse; he imagines himself to be Sydney Carton, from Dickens' 'A Tale of Two Cities' as he goes to the guillotine. That evening the guests are to attend a fancy dress party
the costume provided for Steed is none other than Sydney Carton. As the evening progresses Steed's behaviour becomes somewhat strange; is he suffering the way his colleague did or is he fighting back against telepathic assault?!
Long before 'Doctor Who' had its regular Christmas episodes 'The Avengers' gives us an enjoyably sinister Christmas tale. The dream sequences were clearly done on the cheap but they were effective and the Father Christmas featured was particularly creepy. The Dickens' themed house and party were enjoyable in the strange way one expects in this series. The bad guys were a little disappointing as we knew little of their motivation or how their telepathic powers were meant to work; it would have been better if we'd been given a sci-fi explanation rather than just believing they had an innate ability. There were some amusing moments; most notably a Christmas card from Cathy Gale
from Fort Knox; a nice nod to Honor Blackman's role on 'Goldfinger'. Overall an enjoyable episode despite its weaker than usual bad guys.
"Too Many Christmas Trees," a personal favorite of Patrick Macnee, was of course the 1965 Christmas broadcast for British audiences, while in the US, it ended up being shown the following August! One concession to the Americans is having the bearded one referred to as 'Santa Claus' rather than 'Father Christmas,' and it has to rank as a most unlikely holiday theme, a dark, brooding tale of terror more suited to the 80s than the 60s. Steed is suffering sleepless nights consumed by sinister images of Santa Claus, while the sympathetic Mrs. Peel tries to lighten the holiday festivities by inviting him to a Charles Dickens-themed house party at the estate of publisher Brandon Storey (Mervyn Johns, 1945's "Dead of Night"). Steed instantly realizes something's wrong as he knows exactly which turns to make on the way, and recognizes the house as one he saw in his dreams. Psychic warfare expertly conceived and executed, with such fine actors as Edwin Richfield, weasel-faced series veteran making his fourth appearance (the next would be "Dead Man's Treasure"), Alex Scott ("Square Root of Evil"), who returned for "Game," and Robert James, in the fourth of his five episodes (the next would be "Look (stop me if you've heard this one) But There Were These Two Fellers..."). Barry Warren, Hammer veteran of titles such as 1962's "The Kiss of the Vampire" and 1966's "Frankenstein Created Woman" (and who later appeared in "False Witness"), plays Jeremy Wade, an apparently close friend of Mrs. Peel, as he becomes the first character to call her 'Emma' (Steed only mentioned her first name when making introductions), and his reluctance to push through to the end results in one of the more horrifying images in the show's history. Mrs. Peel almost loses her good humor as she reads some of Steed's Christmas cards from a vast array of female admirers (Amy, Carlotta, Irma, 'Boofums?'), with special mention to one ("best wishes for the future") coming from 'Cathy': "Mrs. Gale, how nice of her to remember me! What can she be doing at Fort Knox?" The final scene presents our duo sharing some special time under the mistletoe, most appropriate. An episode that understandably tops the favorites list of many devoted fans.
