3 good stories in a row so far in season 3. I wonder when the show falls right off a cliff? THE GIRL FROM U. N. C. L. E. Started with 2 good stories, then the 3rd one was the single DUMBEST episode in 3 seasons so far. (And that one had Boris Karloff & Bernard Fox in it.)
Robert Vaughn filled in for Noel Harrison in that GIRL story, so in this one, Noel Harrison fills in for Vaughn, as Napoleon is supposedly recovering from a bad case of pneumonia from jumping into a Venice canal.
This story involves UNCLE finding a girl from the Bronx who they want to train to impersonate an English countess. YES, they actually have REX HARRISON's son doing a PARODY of "MY FAIR LADY"-- with Joan Collins filling in for the Julie Andrews role!
Over the course of the story, the real countess takes a liking to Ilya... then, when SHE's impersonating her double, she falls for Mark Slate. But at the end, Napoleon, out of hospital, takes her out to lunch! While filling out their reports, we hear this exchange from Mark & Ilya:
"Didn't waste much time, did he?" "It's like he was never away."
I found this funny, as Robert Vaughn & Joan Collins played a MARRIED couple on "THE NANNY".
In that, Joan told Fran, "I'd lay off the chocolates if I were you, dear."
