Fleeing from the twin horrors of prospective marriage and the baleful Aunt Agatha, Bertie sails to New York with Jeeves, where he hopes to lie low but instead he is charged with minding the ultra-shy mother's boy Wilmot, son of Lady Malvern, and showing him the high life. Oddly enough Wilmot takes only too well to the night-spots of Manhattan, wearing Bertie out in the process. Tuppy Glossop also arrives, to talk about car exportation with wealthy businessman Mr. Stoker. Unfortunately Tupper's business plan is nowhere near as lofty as it should be.
Romantic entanglements are complicated by a unique silver cow creamer that is desired by both Bertie's Uncle Thomas and his rival, Judge Sir Watkyn Bassett. Sir Watkyn purchases the creamer by telling the shopkeeper, falsely, that Thomas had sent him. Bertie's Aunt Dahlia and friend "Stiffy" Byng both want him to steal the creamer for different reasons, but Judge Sir Watkyn has already sentenced him once (for stealing a bobby's helmet) and he doesn't want to go to jail.
Bertie is back in New York and enamoured of portrait painter Gwladys Pendlebury but Aunt Agatha is not enamoured of the painting of her Bertie commissioned and she is even more annoyed when her wayward twin sons, charged to Bertie's care before being shipped off for colonial posts, give him the slip to pursue a cabaret singer. Tuppy Glossop arrives to sell his family recipe for cock-a-leekie to soup magnate Slingsby to finance his nuptials to Elizabeth but slimy ad man Lucius Pim steals Gwladys from Bertie and makes Aunt Agatha the unwitting face of Slingsby's soups on every billboard in New York.
英国ABC摄制的经典间谍剧集The Avengers在整个60年代红极一时,风靡英语世界,时至今日仍然吸引着世界各地无数的拥趸,成为和The Prisoner、Doctor Who等齐名的老牌英国Cult TV经典,而国内也曾在80年代以《复仇天使》的译名引进其中一小部分。The Avengers系列结束10年以后,剧集制作人Brian Clemens和Albert Fennell在70年代创作、拍摄了续集The New Avengers,同样获得相当大的成功,国内在80年代曾以《三个侦探》的不当译名引进。
The New Avengers沿用了The Avengers系列的男主角超级特工John Steed(Patrick Macnee),原系列中的美女搭档换成了两个年轻后辈Mike Gambit和Purdy。剧情配合冷战背景,涉及间谍与反间谍、有组织犯罪、科幻等多种题材,很多创意在当时颇有前卫性,因而在70年代重掀Avengers热潮。电视摄像与制作技术在10年间的发展,使得The New Avengers比前作显得更为专业。虽然和如今的好莱坞大片相比,The New Avengers在噱头和视觉效果方面要相差很多,但是在70年代其地位还是相当高的,而在今天作为怀旧经典仍然具有相当不错的观赏性和娱乐性。
