Peter Gunn: Spell of Murder (1960)
Season 2, Episode 16
5/10
Spell of Murder
19 January 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Who is trying to shoot Arnold Simpson (Malcolm Atterbury)? Peter Gunn is about to find out in this explosive episode.

Arnold Simpson is a successful businessman with a dark secret. He once left his business partner to die in a collapsed mine. Maybe he has returned for revenge.

Jane Simpson hires Peter Gunn and Arnold tells Gunn of his secret.

Later Gunn receives a strange message from Arnold Simpson. Like he is mesmerised.

Another overstylistic episode but very implausible. Gunn should have been alert over Simpson's strange behaviour and repeating words. Maybe check just to see if his client was ill or not.

The wife running away just as Gunn was about to deliver the parcel was also a red flag.
