"A Disturbing Case" is the second episode of the popular 1969 British television series Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased)distributed by ITC Entertainment starring Mike Pratt, Kenneth Cope and Annette Andre. The episode was first broadcast on 28 September 1969 on ITV. Directed by Ray Austin.
Jeff's car is stolen and used in a robbery, whereby the perpetrators use hypnotic suggestion to rob wealthy upper class businessmen.
Concerned for Jeff's mental health after hearing him talking to himself (in reality, Marty), Jeannie's sister Jenny (Judith Arthy) places a hidden tape recorder in a drawer in his office to capture him doing it again. When they have a "one-sided" conversation on tape, Jenny and Jeannie arrange to send Jeff to Dr. Conrad (David Bauer) at the Lambert Clinic Nursing Home.
Retaining Jeff against his will and filling him with illegal drugs, it happens that Conrad is the mastermind behind the robberies, in league with a criminal known as William Smart who enters each household and robs the customers as they are hypnotised by telephone.
