Audience Member Columbo is off to Merrie Olde England in Dagger of the Mind. While on an official visit to Scotland Yard to review their policing methods, Lt. Columbo helps out on the case of a famous theater producer who was murdered. Bond Girl Honor Blackman (aka Pussy Galore) gives an excellent performance that has a lot of weight to it. And, the writing does a good job at using the established formula of the series while also changing it by taking Columbo out of L.A. and having him shadow the official London inspector in charge of the case. Additionally, there are some fun pieces of comedy with Columbo playing tourist. Breaking convention, Dagger of the Mind is an impressive and refreshing new take on the Columbo murder mystery.

Guest Starring Honor Blackman Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Fun to see Columbo in London! Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Season 2 Episode 4. A producer of Macbeth discovers that his 'secret' lover and her husband have been deceiving him and using him to stage the play so he threatens to close it down but in a heated argument he accidentally dies. No witnesses in sight, they take the body to his house and stage it like he took a fall. Set in London rather than the typical American backset, Columbo is visiting Scotland Yard to learn about their methods and soon becomes involved in the investigation. However, when the one clue he picks up on ends up wrong, Columbo must find another way to catch the couple out. It was a good episode, great seeing Columbo run about with a camera like he was on holiday and funny to see his queasiness back as he tries to eat dinner while avoiding looking at passed around photos of an autopsy.
