Which means, of course, that this is fanfic – me playing in someone else's sandbox. Even moreso, anything in dark blue is a scene taken straight from the screen, dialogue and all, that either didn't hit the novelizations, or that didn't hit them in a way that satisfied my sense of the character arcs that I'm exploring.

As a rule
*** means I'm still adding onto a piece or scene and
### means I'm satisfied with that bit for now.

Summary: For them as hasn't seen it lately: An old friend, turned enemy, of Steed's comes back to haunt him, wanting one final victory over Steed before he dies.
Scenes
Epilogue
Alternate versions
Ficbits and Dialogue notes
Thinking Out Loud
The cricket game is Steed exercising the arm now that it's out of bandages, perhaps?
In My Not So Humble Opinion
One of the best. So good, in fact, that it's hard to write fanfic about it! The writing is so tight that there aren't a lot of loose ends that need to be tucked away, although there are a few. (What happened to Gambit's "hot date" for one.) Mark Crayford is among the most watchable of the villains – I almost never fast forward past his scenes – and the story is such a strong one for Steed that I'll forgive the writers for kidnapping Purdey yet again. Hmmm. Now that I come to think about it, there are some elements of the story that might be highlighted in a decent adaptation…
Favorite scenes – the Purdka for fun and the final sequence in the Victorian folly for drama.
