The Avengers: Propellant 23 (1962)
Season 2, Episode 2
6/10
Solid, if a little muddled.
7 September 2023
Steed and Cathy are in Marseille, set to meet an agent who's carrying a brand new, secret fuel in a hip flask, he is killed, and a mission begins to get it back.

It's a decent episode, but not a patch on the previous episode I thought.

I was a little confused by the story at times, don't think I could say that this was an exciting, action packed adventure, it wasn't.

On the plus side, some of the sets are pretty nice, especially those on board the plane and at the airport, and the acting was pretty good, some well known faces to watch out for including Geoffrey Palmer and Nicholas Courtney.

I like that if focused more so on Cathy than Steed, and we get the first sight of her ability to kick a***.

The story for me just didn't quite work, I found it a little slow and podding,

6/10.
