In the episode there are only two women, Emma Peel and the fake head mistress. They are clearly over sexualized and put into the series for the men's attention. However Emma Peel was actually smart and skillful and very helpful towards the case. She was presented as almost being perfect because even when she was being captured she looked absolutely calm and even flirtatious. However women were disrespected during that era and the actor who played Emma Peel was almost payed less than the cameraman. The directors were very sexist but at least they didn't present her as dumb eye candy. During the fencing scene she dominated him at some point however later he hit her bum with the fencing pole with a zoom in which emphasizes her purpose on the show. The style all of the males have is vey formal with only suits however both the women wear tight fitted clothes such as leather catsuits to attract the attention.
