THE ARROW OF GOD is a very fine little episode of THE SAINT which plays out as a murder mystery with Templar playing the role of the detective. A star-studded cast improves things no end and if there's no action here, it doesn't matter because watching the actors interact is entertainment enough in itself. It's very much an 'old dark house' (or perhaps new dark house) mystery in the Agatha Christie mould, with the delightfully unpleasant Anthony Dawson finding himself bumped off and Templar choosing between the suspects. Honor Blackman is as lovely as ever, while John Carson bizarrely dons the boot polish to play an Indian mystic and Ronald Leigh-Hunt and Elspeth March bring the old-time gravitas.
