John Bryce was brought in as producer to replace Brian Clemens and Albert Fennell on the last season because the studio wished to bring the show "back to realism", as he had produced the Cathy Gale episodes. However, financial problems and internal difficulties undermined Bryce's effort. He also had to hurriedly shoot seven episodes to ship off to America with the last of the Emma Peel episodes. He only completed three ("Invitation to a Killing", a ninety-minute episode introducing Tara King, "The Great, Great Britain Crime", which had some of its original footage re-used in season seven, episode twenty-six, "Homicide & Old Lace" and "Invasion of the Earthmen", which survived relatively intact, except for the scenes in which Tara wears a brown wig) before he was replaced by Clemens and Fennell again.
