The Forest of Digne, also known as the Digne Forest, was a forest near Monte Carlo whose native species included owls, among other creatures. There was a clearing 4 kilometres into the forest's perimeter.
History[[edit] | [edit source]]
When MI5 agent Captain Blacker was shot aboard his yacht by Carl, and the ship was subsequently blown up with the plans to a nuclear device stolen in January 1965, fellow MI5 agent Jimmy Bondson contacted International Rescue for help. While waiting in his hotel room, a call was started by Lady Penelope Creighton-Ward, who was sitting in the back seat of her car, with Parker driving. During this call, she requested that Bondson visit a clearing in the Forest of Digne at midnight, which he agreed to do.
Later, an owl was sitting on the branch of a tree in the forest, hooting. Soon after, Bondson arrived in his car and waited for Lady Penelope (whose identity he was kept unaware of) to arrive. Upon her arrival, she held a gun to his head, made him switch off his engine, and threatened to shoot him if he turned around to look at her. She demanded that he tell her why he needed help from International Rescue, which he explained. At the end of the discussion, Lady Penelope left, telling him to "do nothing, say nothing", as she would contact him. Finally, she told him to stay still for 10 minutes before returning to his hotel. As Penelope left, Bondson attempted to turn and look at her, but Parker noticed, and used Lady Penelope's car's gunstick to shoot a bullet, hitting a tree. Parker then drove Lady Penelope away, leaving Bondson to wait before returning to his hotel.
Lady Penelope later met with Bondson in the forest again, after the plans had been recovered by International Rescue. While hiding in the foliage, Lady Penelope used a speaker to magnify her voice, and requested that Bondson exit his motor vehicle and walk to the large tree at the edge of the clearing, where Penelope had left the nuclear device's plans. After collecting the plans, he was told to return to his car, before Lady Penelope returned to her own car, and was driven away by Parker, who proceeded to drive her home. (TV: The Man from MI.5)
Other sources dated the activities of International Rescue to the 1990s, (PROSE: The Dying Days) the 2060s, (PROSE: Titan Declares War! et al.) and the 2080s. (PROSE: Captain Scarlet in Death Crash! et al.)
