Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaNo matter where the story was set, this series tried to be as accurate as possible. One way was in small things, such as signs being both in the language of the story's setting and that it actually said something autopsies apropos. This episode's no exception, as the sign above the patio area where Drake firsthand meets Nicos says (in Greek) 'Beer Here'.
- GoofsThe delivery truck that Drake steals from in front of the hotel has the steering wheel on the right side, like an English vehicle, although the events are taking place in Greece, where drivers sit on the left and use the right side of the road. Nicos and the local police are seen driving cars that correctly have the steering wheel on the left.
- Quotes
Hobbs: Walks in to room, whilst Drake is serrupticiously listening in on Paula Glover's conversation; Dake, I want to know...
John Drake: Puts a finger to his lips; Shhhhh-shhh - it's the mother. I'm, uh, interfering with the privacy of a citizen.

Featured review
Spy gadget #9
This episode brings us a similar pairing of bugging device and receiver as seen in "Such Men Are Dangerous" (the special "Order" of folks who assassinated world leaders at will).
The bug John Drake plants in a woman's suitcase is a completely different shape however; it's larger (more battery capacity?) and sort of rectangularish. The radio, although it is similar in dimension to the transceiver used in the aforementioned episode, has a different face and is just a receiver. It does not seem to broadcast, whereas the other radio did (it needed to so that Drake could call in the Calvary!).
So the bug in this episode is a unique enough pairing to warrant calling this the 9th spy gadget seen in the Danger Man / Secret Agent saga.
