Steed and Emma visit a mysterious coastal town where several agents have vanished, and where the locals are not all they seem.
I've been a fan of The Avengers for as long as I can remember, but unfortunately, I've honestly never seen more than the odd episode here and there. Thanks to Netflix, I've decided to change that. I've also decided to not start at the beginning of the series, but with the 1965 season instead. As many fans will undoubtedly know, 1965 is the season that Diana Rigg joined the show as Mrs. Emma Peel. Mrs. Peel's introduction has to be one of the most "nothing" moments in television history. She's quite literally just there. No fanfare at all. But then again, this is The Avengers. The low-key approach to something like a new major character is in keeping with the show's overall tone. Like the character Steed, "unflappable" is a good work to use when describing the entire series.

The first episode of 1965, "The Town of No Return" encapsulates what I enjoy about the show. Quirky characters, bizarre situations, solid acting, and a sinister air of mystery are all present in this episode. Steed and Mrs. Peel arrive in a small town to investigate the disappearances of several agents who have gone in before them. The quaint little town is situated near a WWII air base. But something is wrong. There aren't enough people. And those who are there aren't who they seem to be. Steed and Mrs. Peel find themselves at the air base investigating an invasion from within (so to speak).

Even though this was their first episode together, Diana Rigg and Patrick Macnee are as good always. Their chemistry seems to have been instantaneous. They are joined by a good, but small supporting cast that includes Terence Alexander as the overly genial barkeep named 'Piggy" Warren and Robert Brown (who I immediately recognized as M from the James Bond films of the 1980s) as the very sinister Saul. I'm sure that having a director as skilled in horror as Roy Ward Baker contributed greatly to the episodes atmosphere. As is the case with many of The Avengers episodes I've seen, the writing is the real standout. "The Town of No Return" is no different. It's well written and interesting throughout. Though some of the details in the underground bunker near the end get a bit messy, this is a very minor quibble to what is otherwise an entertaining start to the 1965 season. I'd never realised before, but watching The Town Of No Return this time I found Diana Rigg's portrayal of Emma Peel not quite as rounded as it will become; it's slightly too acidic – she always retains a trace of acid of course, along with her famous "Chelsea wit", but here she seems to be reading the lines as Cathy Gale - with a grudging resentment towards Steed, rather than a smouldering sexuality and feline superiority that she later possesses; it's not a complaint, just an observation. This episode has an intro sequence, or as much of an intro as we've ever had in the Avengers thus far – basically Steed and Mrs Peel have a fencing match – both physically and verbally – which allows a few small insights into their characters, mainly that Steed is more than happy to play dirty to win when necessary.

The classic scene on the train with Steed's tea things in the carpet bag is priceless and just typifies the Avengers as we now think of it; this scene wouldn't have fitted well into the earlier seasons, but the Avengers is now a different show with more emphasis on light entertainment and humour; it seldom relies on anything from the real world.

The two leads are amazing in this story and their relationship – although fledgling – is one that is a pleasure to watch. The supporting cast are all excellent, including a brief appearance from Patrick Newell, later to become Steeds superior "Mother" – and Juliet Harmer, who must have been filming Adam Adamant Lives! around this time. Terence Alexander and Jeremy Burnham are brilliantly cast and turn in memorable performances.

The setting of Little Bazeley is atmospheric and the mystery builds nicely. Some of the shots of sand dunes, graveyard and abandoned military base are so filmic and well-composed that I had to keep pausing to admire the frames. The plot – when fully revealed - is outlandish, but hey, this is Emma Peel Avengers, and outlandish and somewhat surreal is exactly what we want.

I can't praise this episode highly enough. For me the pacing is just right, the humour's spot on and everything comes together perfectly. This is Avengers-gold – one of the very, very best of the series. 10/10.
