Something else from last week’s ancient TV show revivals was two examples of the same gimmick. Saturday’s episode of The Saint from 1967 (S5, E19) had him open a door in an upstairs room and be confronted with a long drop because the next door building had been bombed to bitz.
    The Saint got away with it but people in Tuesday’s episode of Dial 999 from 1959 (S1, E30) weren’t so lucky. Both a copper and a bad guy took a final plunge in a case for DI Mike Mcguire, a Mountie working with Scotland Yard.
