Customer Reviews of Avengers: Joker & Who's Who
Joker evokes sinister country house atmosphere Diana Rigg as the poised Mrs. Peel is lured to a country house in an isolated spot. Steed feels he is doing a kindness by not warning her that a sinister German criminal, Prendergast, has escaped. Since Emma was influential in trapping him, leading to his arrest and imprisonment, Steed's friend suggests she be warned... Recurring Joker motifs- Joker playing card on door, multiple copies of one record, a figure that spies on Emma through a peep hole. Rigg conveys Emma's assurance and confidence, then her growing despair when she realizes she is locked in with a faceless murderer who has left her a corpse, cut the telephone wires, taken the door key. It is suitably claustrophobic and suspenseful. Who's who is less interesting, a 2 star episode. One of the stars was ill, the other on vacation so one gets a Steed and Mrs. Peel script with Steed and Mrs. Peel missing through much of the show! There is one teasingly kinky moment. Steed and Emma have been transplanted into different, more common bodies and enemy agents have appropriated theirs.
Emma succeeds in transferring herself back -only to be attacked by Steed who is sure the female enemy agent resides in Emma's body. "If you're not convinced....." She whispers something in his ear. "Oh, Mrs. Peel," The tag of Steed and Mrs. Peel has a great closing line. "One should never take a man for granted (she says of Steed)....but one does!" The producers should never have taken the sublime pairing of Diana Rigg and Patrick MacNee for granted and assumed that ANy female actress would be as good. The show was never as well acted or written after she left.
