A quirky spy show of the adventures of eccentrically suave British Agent John Steed and his predominantly female partners. Jonathan Steed - an urbane, proper gentleman spy - teams with various assistants throughout the series' run, including Dr. David Keel, Cathy Gale, Emma Peel and Tara King, to repeatedly save the world from diabolical schemes plotted by equally diabolical evil-doers (among them robots and man-eating monsters).
"The Frighteners," "Girl on the Trapeze" and the first twenty minutes of "Hot Snow" are the known episodes to exist of the first season. All the other episodes of season one were destroyed by the BBC in a bulk wipe, to which many classic shows have been lost [IE: Dr. Who, Dad's Army, The Spies, etc.) We do hope that the rest will pop up someday, somewhere, somehow...
