Last nite BBC had an Avengers marathon on and Erika and I watched a couple episodes 2 of which were very good ones. The 1st one was the duplicates where this doctor was making replacments of people but they would freak out over certain radio frequencies. The 2nd one was where Emma Peel was kidnapped and forced to star in a movie of her own demise. The Avengers is one of the best tv shows to ever come out of the UK and its amazing to think that it started 41 years ago. Diana Rigg aka Emma Peel starred in it from '67-'69 and other women picked of the part but none of them had the aura and mistique of Riggs. I found this website with photos, bio, and even a disertation of Emma Peel - Feminist Icon or Swinging 60's Chick.
The show started out in B&W then moved to color in its 2nd season I believe. The storylines are very campy, it was made to be a spoof off of James Bond so it had to be cheezy. In the 90s Uma Thurman played Emma Peel in the movie of The Avengers. This didn't go over too well with the general public, most people had no idea it was based on a tv show so they thought it was just stupid. I felt the movie did the show justice, they kept with the style and did well with their villian played by Sean Connery.
If you have never watched The Avengers and have the BBC, look for it, they like to show it on the weekends.
