Steed and Tara are called to an apartment, where they witness a murder, the first in a sequence of killings, where the killer claimed to be in a dream state.
Pretty good, I don't think anyone could make the case that this was the strongest episode from this final series, but on the whole it's a good one. As a story, maybe it feels as though the end of the show is approaching.
It's definitely not without imagination, it's a plot device we've seen used before on the show, admittedly to greater effect, but mind control is always a chilling concept.
Nice to see Tara having something of a love interest, and it was enjoyable to see Edward Fox cast as the hapless wannabe suitor, generally the villain of the piece, it's about the first time I've seen him play a somewhat wet character.
I really did like the visuals, it had something of a different feel about it, it's sharp, it's very nicely produced, it's an episode that definitely feels well paced, there are no long scenes, or dull moments, it doesn't, to coin a phrase, hang about.
Peter Vaughan was excellent, I also really enjoyed Philip Madoc's presence.
It's not the most memorable, nor the most exciting, but overall, pretty good, 7/10.
