today, i came home from work, made myself comfortable on my couch and was zapping through the channels on tv. normally i start over again when reaching channel 20 or so, but today i made my way through all special-interest stations and finally reached arte. it’s a german-french culture station that is normally not my first spot to look for interesting tv stuff. but today, two men playing golf in monochrome awakened my interest.

it turns out that this was an episode of “the avengers” of 1966 that is called “the thirteenth hole”. john steed (patrick macnee) and emma peel (diana rigg) are playing and investigating on the golf course. for golf fanatics this might be quite an enjoyable amusement – exciting and funny at once!
