The Saint: The Gadic Collection (5.27, ITC, 1967)
"He believed that people who are foolish deserve to be separated from their money."
"Well, I must confess, I feel the same way myself sometimes."

Wyngarde returns as guest star‚ but gets no fave spotted post from me this time; I've also largely tried to#avoid images with him in for this post. unfortunately a fairly good ep is rendered distasteful (and has fully understandably been dropped#from the current itv4 repeats) by one of the worst and most offensive cases of brownface I've come across in old tv. there's no excusing it#and it looks‚ frankly‚ ridiculous as well as deeply troubling. a very disappointing element of an otherwise entertaining episode#paul darrow also turns up and is also playing a native of Istanbul but happily does not appear to be under heavy makeup.. nor do much of#the guest cast‚ and certainly nobody near Wyngarde's level of makeup. which makes one wonder what happened and why on earth

Napoleon And Love: Maria Walewska (1.6, Thames, 1974)
"What must I do to convince you that I love you more strongly, more profoundly than I have ever loved before? Ever in my life, I have never loved before; till now I have not loved!"
"That is not true."
"I feel it to be true... you're right, it isn't true. Not a lie, but a forgetting. I have loved once. This is the second time. I was mad for Josephine once, as I am for you now. Josephine: all woman, all charm, all grace, all... sympathy, all subtlety, all sexual knowledge. I did not die for love of her. She took me into her bed and she married me. But afterwards - I died of jealousy. She turned my heart to a stone, to rock... to iron."
#Napoleon and love#Maria Walewska#1974#classic tv#ian holm#catherine schell#Peter bowles#Peter blythe#Peter Jeffrey#Ronald hines#Françoise Pascal#Vladek sheybal#Kevin stoney#Stephen Yardley#Andre van gyseghem#Elma soiron#Hana Maria pravda#Donald pelmear#John White#Philip mackie#Jonathan alwyn#Ohh this was a very very good one. I'm not finished of course but this feels like it might be the series at its best. Mackie delivers one#Of his most literary and sophisticated scripts; the guest cast continues to expand and feature beloved faces like Yardley and Sheybal. Here#More than ever the political aspects take a back seat and the plot becomes almost incidental in favour of several long and stagey#Conversation scenes between Holm and Schell but the two are so powerful and the script so strong that it's mesmerising#Schell might be the standout guest of the series. Whitelaw has been a fantastic Josephine and she's absent this episode but Schell is#Simply incredible as Walewska. Quiet dignified but utterly strong to the core and almost fierce in her devotion: first to her husband then#To Poland and God and then ultimately to Napoleon. Jeffrey has a wonderful scene at the end too in which his character is revealed to have#Much more depth and more decency than has been previously revealed. Brilliant old telly this. And it runs several minutes over the standard#50 minute run time (always the sign of a good episode in my book: when you just can't cut any more and have to say sod it we'll go over)
