Affectionately reminiscent of the old Thin Man pictures, the British comedy-mystery series Partners in Crime starred James Warwick and Francesca Annis as husband-and-wife private eyes. The series was telecast in America as Tommy and Tuppence, a component of PBS' Mystery anthology. In The Ambassador's Boots, T & T tackle the curious case of some missing luggage. Said luggage belongs to an American ambassador, who has every reason to believe he's been victimized by his enemies. He has, but not in the manner that he supposes. The Ambassador's Boots, like the Partners in Crime series itself, is based on characters and situations created by Agatha Christie.
