Three men and a woman called Circe politely call on the country home of Steed's friends, married couple Bill and Laura Bassett. Unfortunately their visit turns sinister as they plan to implant explosives into the throats of the couple and send them off to destroy a nearby peace conference. Happily for the Bassetts - and the conference - Steed is coming to visit for the weekend, and he knows what to do.
"Take-Over" is a curious episode, a throwback to the quiet intensity of earlier seasons, the last of 5 scripted by Terry Nation, and the last of 7 directed by Robert Fuest. This may explain the return of Tom Adams, not seen since 1961's first season ("Death on the Slipway" and "The Far-Distant Dead"), who toplines as cultured villain Fenton Grenville, whose entourage invades a quiet country home for the purpose of sabotage. Enter the unexpected presence of John Steed, who celebrates Christmas every February with his hosts, soon learning that both are in mortal danger, with Tara making her entrance late in the proceedings. Despite the distinct lack of humor (and music), the verbal sparring between Steed and Grenville make this the last truly great entry. Hammer veteran Michael Gwynn (1958's "The Revenge of Frankenstein" and 1970's "Scars of Dracula") plays the harried host, Elizabeth Sellars is his wife, and Garfield Morgan ("The Fear Merchants" and "Game") wears shades again as Grenville's culinary cohort.
'Take-Over', written by Terry Nation, is without doubt one of the finest episodes of the Thorson series, even though poor Linda hardly features in it! It begins with a Rolls Royce moving through open countryside. No, it is not Steed's, but belongs to one Fenton Grenville ( Tom Adams ). Also in the car is a man with a gun trained on him. The car stops, both Grenville and the driver leave. The man tries to get away. Grenville casually takes a lighter from his pocket, and flicks it on. The running man stops, clutching his throat in agony. A wisp of smoke pours forth. He drops down dead. Looking pleased with themselves, the villains drive off.
Steed is planning on spending a weekend in the country with a pair of old friends - Bill Basset ( Michael Gwynn ) and wife Laura ( Elisabeth Sellars ). He arrives to find Grenville in residence, along with two other men ( Garfield Morgan and Keith Buckley ) and a strange young woman called Circe Bishop ( Hilary Pritchard ).
Grenville shares Steed's love of music and art and hunting. Steed suspects something is wrong. Searching the house, he finds Sergeant Groom ( John Comer ) - the Basset's manservant - dead inside a cupboard. Grenville has planted phosphor bombs in the Basset's throats, which can be detonated by the gadget contained within his lighter. He has taken over the house as he wishes to assassinate foreign Ministers at a conference soon to take place at a nearby house...
The first thing to be said for 'Take-Over' is that it does not feel like your typical 'Avengers' episode - it is dark, claustrophobic, and lacks the camp humour the series was known for. The villains are a cultured lot - Grenville is as charming and sophisticated as Steed himself - and their verbal jousting is a joy to watch. Its hard to imagine them as Russian spies, one presumes they want to carry out the assassination out of misguided patriotism. Tom Adams is excellent as 'Grenville'; he had played British agent 'Charles Vine' in three low-budget Bond spoofs, and later appeared in 'Spy Trap' and 'The Enigma Files'. But stealing the show is the lovely ( and alas deceased ) Hilary Pritchard as 'Circe'. The woman is a genius, but also psychotic, not to mention rather vain. Pritchard gives Circe a beguiling child-like quality; for instance, when she overhears the Bassets plotting to escape, she sings: "I'm going to tell on you!". Later we see her cutting letters out of a newspaper so that when it is held up the word 'BANG!' can be seen. It is a shame the actress - used mainly as crumpet fodder in shows like Frankie Howerd's 'Whoops Bagdad' - did not get more roles like this.
Robert Fuest lets his imagination run riot, coming up with some extraordinary visuals, some of the best in the show's history.
'Take-Over' is a tour-de-force, brilliantly written, acted and directed. A pity the costume department did not find Garfield Morgan a better wig though. At times he strongly resembles Bernard Bresslaw.
