synopsis
In London to close an oil deal, middle-eastern potentate King Tenuphon (played by Burt Kwouk of "Pink Panther" fame) is targetted for assassination. Assigned to protect Tenuphon, Steed suspects that the would-be killers are sequestered in a seedy suburban London flat. The climax involves a low-flying helicopter -- but who's at the controls? Written by James Mitchell, "Kill the King" was taped on August 30, 1961, and telecast on September 2.
