Episode 1x11: "To Trap A Rat"
A woman runs through London looking desperate. It's the Rani! Shame the Brigadier isn't still hanging around from a few episodes back. Eventually, after much flashing of neon lights and advertisements for the entertainments of London - "Lynda Barron appearing tonight!" and half a sign advertising something that Edward Woodward is up to - she arrives in a club. A strange bloke who thinks that dark sunglasses are a good plan in a dark place in the middle of the night gives her something, and when she leaves, she's calm and peaceful. Ah ha. This'll be a drugs trade episode, then. Moments later, however, she's crashing her car, and being rushed to hospital in a quaintly sixties ambulance. She's lucky, says somebody who looks oddly like a doctor. I know there was more money in the sixties, but every ambulance with its own doctor?! I think not. Anyway, she's lucky because there's bad drugs sweeping the city at the moment, and kids are dying every which way. Golly. Better call for Z-Cars.
