This is actually a remake, with a few minor adjustments, of the Cathy Gale episode "The Charmers." This version goes the extra mile to poke fun at ultra-Anglicism, particularly when Steed and Co. arrive at SNOB. Would be a four-bowler hit if not for Michael Gough's painfully lame foreign accent and Olga's occasional tendency to come off as a female counterpart of Brodny. Olga does, however, provide some outstanding wide-eyed reactions to the goofy Brits.
The teaser looks as though it was shot on the village square set of "Escape in Time." Acronym Alert: SNOB stands for Sociability, Nobility, Omnipotence, Breeding, Inc.
The umbrella salesman proudly demonstrates the quality of his goods in a shower stall. "Each and every one of these umbrellas has been rained on from a great height."
Grotski: "What's the matter with him—is he dumb or something?" Percy: "No, he's British."
