The Gun Runners

A UN inspection fails to find the suppliers selling weapons to terroists operating in the Middle East, however the British representitive Zena Flemming suspects that she might be able to find more evidence if she heads back alone, but takes Peter Brady with her for protection, and as a second pair of eyes. Aside from a surprisingly grim opening, with a child watching as his parents are killed in front of him, this is yet another generic episode, as Brady has to save a woman from some soldiers, and sneak around in a foreign country. The issue is raised at one point, that even if they cut off this particular supplier, there will be others to take their place, but it is never discussed further. The ending is especially poor, resolving nothing.
