'The Man Who Came Back.' Derren Nesbitt tries to kill Straker. Roland Culver is in it for sixty seconds.
'Ordeal'. Paul goes to a health spa after a late party and dreams he's been kidnapped by aliens. Weirdly the credits for this show 1969. In fact they all do. UFOs travel at a million and a half miles a second, apparently. Or maybe that's only in Paul's dream.
'Confetti Check A-O.K' raises a question and provides an answer. The question is why make an episode entirely about Straker's marital problems in the days SHADO was set up - not an alien in sight - more of a soap opera. But this episode does point dramatically to why the series was not recommissioned - it's just boring (and I think misunderstands its audience).
The SHADO HQ is the MGM British Studios at Borehamwood.
