The Angel of St. EdmundsEpisode Number: 12 Season Num: 1 First Aired: Monday February 3, 2003 Prod Code: 112 |
Adventure Inc. is recruited by St. Edmunds Abbey to retrieve a stolen gold and jeweled Angel that is believed to carry protective powers. They are contacted by a monk, Brother John, who is sworn to silence and thinks he knows where the Angel is. The trail leads to London where mobsters try to take out Lucy Wyle, a bar and casino owner who has the Angel and refuses to sell, so the gang go ahead and steal it - Judson and Mac break in while Gabe distracts Lucy. But Lucy catches on and ransoms Gabe for the Angel, but the mobsters show up and break up the whole thing. The gang trounces them, Brother John retires from the Abbey, and Lucy returns the Angel.
| Writer: | Naomi Janzen |
| Director: | Mark Roper |
| Star: | Jesse Nilsson (Gabriel Patterson), Michael Biehn (Judson Cross), Karen Cliche (Mackenzie Previn) |

Christien Anholt previously played Nigel Bailey on AI's predecessor show, Relic Hunter. Much of the production crew and writers on AI were involved in that show too. The character he plays here is initially almost the antithesis of the overly chatty Nigel and one suspects the "going off thing" at the end might either be intended as an in-joke, or a set up for him to return in the future.
(edit)
This show marks the typical mid-season switchover for similarly produced shows (Highlander, Relic Hunter) where having wrapped up the first half of filming in the U.S./Canada, they jump over to Western Europe for the second half of the season.
(edit)
Brother John: You realize, my son, that violence is never a solution.
Rohan: You ready to put your faith to the test? (Mac slugs him)
Brother John: Okay, so I was wrong. (edit) Judson: I'm not sure I want to put Gabe in a compromising position.
Gabe: Do I have a say in this? Some compromising positions are better than others... (edit)
Rohan: You ready to put your faith to the test? (Mac slugs him)
Brother John: Okay, so I was wrong. (edit) Judson: I'm not sure I want to put Gabe in a compromising position.
