The Bird Who Knew Too Much
21 August 2020
Steed and Mrs Peel investigate when two agents are found dead, one with an aerial photography of a top-secret missile base. They discover someone named Captain Caruso is transporting the information to the other side, but they soon discover Caruso is a parrot with a photographic memory.

This is my favorite Avengers episode since A Touch of Brimstone. There's continuity issues and plot holes galore, but just sit back and enjoy the ride. The plot is quite ingenious, and Patrick Macnee and Diana Rigg are charming as always. There's an especially good guest cast too: Ron Moody is delightful, while Kenneth Cope (Marty Hopkirk), Anthony Valentine (Toby Meres from Callan) and John Wood all appear
