I've watched many shows/movies with Patrick McGoohan...Danger Man (30 min. Version); Columbo (4 episodes), and Secret Agent (aka Danger Man). He is absolutely excellent in this role as he shifts his daring style as a secret agent to one of a 'servile' butler. The title hints at just how difficult this is for him. The bad guy deserves to be slapped down, but can't be...at least not in the beginning. The restraint shown during this episode is palpable. I most enjoyed the 'drowning the drink' encounter. Best episode of the lot!
