A slight tale about army officers (among them Warren Mitchell and the returning Tenniel Evans) engaged in smuggling gold to the Far East. Cue much Chinese restaurant business and an appalling moral conclusion, with a speech from Mitchell's Captain Jason about how the proceeds are being divided among deserving ex-soldiers, which persuades Cathy and Steed to destroy the evidence of what's happened to the money. I bet Nicky from Death on the Rocks is kicking himself wishing he'd tried that approach when they broke up his diamond-smuggling scam.
Even Cathy's undercover role at the regimental museum can't make up for this awfulness.
