Five Miles High

This fine but fairly routine episode is interesting for two reasons. The first is the vintage Boeing 707 interior which is the set for the whole episode. It is interesting to see a cabin with open luggage rack, and how spacious the coach cabin was... but no entertainment. The second is a rare appearance by Norma Crane (Golde in the Fiddler on the Roof movie). Crane plays virtually the same character: a hardboiled but supporting wife. Of course, this time she isn't in a schtetl, but aboard a 707, and her husband isn't a milkman but a shady businessman. Norma Crane was an interesting character actress. Hadn't she died so young, she may have had success on programs such as The Golden Girls.
