Yikes, it’s the Sixties in microcosm! The opening sequence
of this unusual episode features that jaunty music and those dolly birds plus
bold colours that are mandatory in every Swinging Sixties drama. Except it’s
supposed to be 1970 so it must have seemed just as surreal to viewers then.
These gaudily attired gals procure sweets to two City gents as writer Dom
Shaw’s look at advertising begins. As with a number of episodes there is
something of the now about The Devil’s Sweets while at the same time it sits
rather comfortably in it’s period setting too.
