Danger Man "Find and Destroy" #1.35 (1961) (TV)

Drake vacations in Rio, 31 July 2015


John Drake's Mission: Find a remote control submarine that somehow got off course and destroy it before it can fall into enemy hands.

As with the previous episode, Find and Destroy didn't do much for me. First, even with only 25 or so minutes, there's still a lot of filler. The entire segment where Drake prepares for vacation has no real bearing on the mission. Two, Drake's South American disguise is embarrassing. McGoohan is a good actor, but he looks and sounds ridiculous here. Third, while the final fight scene is good, there was one thing that really bugged me - why was there all the discussion about fuse timers that didn't work correctly if it didn't play any part in what happened?

Overall, a very average 5/10 from me.

5/10
