THE SPRINGERS

Production completed: 11 May 1961
UK Premiere (London, Season 1): 13 May 1961

Steed wants to know how prisoners are escaping from jail, and sends Dr. Keel in to impersonate an inmate soon to be sprung. Clues lead Steed to a finishing school for young women, and together with a young female agent, they infiltrate the school. Caught searching a room, Steed is captured, and when Keel arrives, he is fingered as an imposter and imprisoned as well. Both of their lives are nearly at an end when Steed outwits their captors and the two escape.
