Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
According to one Avengers-appreciation Web site, three of the seven episodes contained in this two-volume set--'Too Many Christmas Trees,' 'A Surfeit of H20,' and 'Dial a Deadly Number'--rank among the 10 best episodes from the series' Mrs. Emma Peel era (a fourth, 'The Hour That Never Was,' is ranked in the top 20), making this the perfect chaser to The Avengers '65 Set 1, Vols. 1 and 2. 'What nasty situation have you got in store for me this time?' Mrs. Peel asks in 'The Man-Eater of Surrey Green,' another of the vintage, black-and-white episodes from the series' breakthrough fourth season, which introduced Diana Rigg in her signature role. The answers make for diabolically clever entertainment in classic Avengers tradition: a 'herbicial' plant from outer space (in 'The Man-Eater'), matrimonial matchmaker assassins (in 'The Murder Market'), a rainmaking vintner (in 'H20'), and a brainwashing dentist (in 'The Hour'). 'Christmas Trees' alone is worth the price of the set. In this haunting episode for all seasons, Steed is plagued by deadly nightmares that have begun to come true. Outfitted at one point as Oliver Twist, Mrs. Peel proves herself to be the woman of our dreams. --Donald Liebenson
