Sapphire & Steel: Assignment Two- The Railway Station, Part 4

 "Everything was all right until you arrived!"

Now that's better; things are happening. Admittedly the cliffhanger resolution is pretty much a mirror of the last one, this time with Steel doing the resciog by, er, walking into the sub and slowly dragging out Sapphire and Tully. But at this point the plot actually starts moving forward again, which is always good.

So Steel talks to the soldier, who hints at a plan. Tully is getting REALLY pissed off with Steel's rudeness. And Sapphire makes a chillingly cold reference, again, to Tully's life expectancy. She interacts with him while calmly knowing he has just under five years to live. Brr.

Then we get the seance, and we learn things- the young men who died so horribly in the submarine were civilian contractors, not sailors- they weren't paid to die. There's a lot of resentment here, just like the soldier, as well as hints that they have "help". Incidentally, Joanna Lumley is excellent here.

The cliffhanger, again, is unclear and in an odd place- but this is getting intriguing again. Let's hope the next episode has some plot in it too.
