Why didn't Sir Charles Portland, in ‘Do Not Forsake Me Oh My Darling,’ at least recognise the Colonel when No.6 came calling?
With all the previous talk of Seltzman in his mind, perhaps Sir Charles was suspicious of everyone! So he recognised the physical Colonel but was also aware that he might not be the real thing. Last time I tried to over-analyse this episode I ended up very confused, so I think I'll stop now!
Hello ZM72, How the devil are you me dear fellow, well I trust. Did Sir Charles recognise the physical Colonel? I didn't think he did, but that's only a personal opinion. But you may be right, that Sir Charles was suspicious of everyone, that he might not even recognise the Colonel for the real thing. Mind you did the Colonel actually work for Sir Charles Portland? I think I'll stop as well, otherwise I'm in danger of tying myself up in knots here!
