The assault course sequence shows just how fit and athletic Joanna Lumley was. Both she and Gareth Hunt had to endure an olympic style training routine to get them into shape. She brought a realism to her stunts and fight sequences that still hold up quite well by today's standards....
When you see Purdey in action (as witnessed here), you know she can kick some serious ass and in keeping within the standards of that time, still look feminine - even if her choice of clothing was "unusual"......
Nice to see the Controller Bradshw " bought it " the same way; if only the chief " bad guy " was forced to go through knowing their poison ( him being unarmed ). And that scene with Joanna is highly memorable; espeically when she climbs up the drain pipe / wall.
Well, they don't make 'em like this anymore! Shame... Things back then were so much more fun and cinematically told with self mocking humour and some great incidental music...
Thank you so much for adding all the videos of this excellent TV show from 1975. You made me very happy for the last few days as i watch back on all the episodes. Kind Regards-Eamon.
