The Avengers International Fan Forum

I liked what one reviewer said about the movie. He said that Macnee and Rigg should have been cast in it, damn their ages. Not a bad idea, really. They could have been the equivalent of Mother and Father , and had two new young leads doing the rough...

A game would have been great, but when I think about it, it would be quite difficult to turn The Avengers into a game, especially one that remains true to the Tv series'.

probably true...on the other hand, if the show was a monster mega hit,
I'm...

Very intersting to note that the handwritten notes would make the acting more lively and would give it more depth.

If you join the Ministry of Riggism group at Yahoo under the Photos section there are 14 photos from the beach shoot in various outfits. I did have the name of the beach somewhere - if I find it I'll let you know :)

I immediately did!

:?: hi just read review of dead mans treasure hunt does this happen every year sounds a great event i would definately like to attend do you stay in a local hotel i have a restored healey sprite which would fit in perfectly :!:

Kate Winslet could have played Tara!

Or NOT!

Why not? I'm sure Linda Thorson would be very proud to have a future Academy Award (TM) winner playing the role she created. But I wasn't being entirely serious - hence the 'wink' icon.

And here's...

Just a thought - I take the making of Emma Knight being the niece of Bulldog Drummond of be a definite nod to the Wold Newton Universe :
I expect so - isn't Mycroft Holmes also the first M of Bond fame in both LoEG and Wold Newton? But then LoEG...

I don't think it's as early as 1973 as Patrick was still favouring a longer hairstyle and sideburns then. All previous info has said the ad was filmed in 1975 - I'm happy to go with that.

Linda looks a bit spooky in that pic!

It may be just a...

You could argue that Steed was already one part old-Steed one part Mother-role by the time of The New Avengers.

Yes, it does seem to be that way.

From memory, The Avengers themes aren't - there are two. I remember them as being annoying if anything. Stylish sleeve though ...

a familar tale of....woe ?

how many times, have I seen this...good cover, for a LP/CD
or Book, and it wasn't as...

I wonder if Brian Clemens was an Upstairs Downstairs fan? He cast Gordon Jackson in The Professionals.

I caught a repeat of UD on ITV3 one afternoon last week. I can see why BC was impressed by Gareth. He could be quite menacing as Frederick but...

These are lovely, very jealous. :wink:

Iv'e always liked his artwork, from his early days on Judge Dredd and Robo Hunter in the great comic 2000AD.

He also did a Captain kronos Vampire Hunter comic strip for the superb House Of Hammer magazine in...

Some wonderful rare shots there.

I love the one of Linda Thorson in her Pandora costume.

whoa, some great pics...nice site...always cool to be alerted to
sites like this...very coool

I first heard Here I am fairly recently and I really like it, Linda Thorson doesn't have a strong voice but for it's most pleasant sounding of all The Avengers ladies.

I prefer Let's Keep It Friendly to Kinky Boots as it just feels more...

Let's see if it surfaces this time; September is a way off yet.

This time ? Has it been scheduled for release before?
There is a whole other thread about this DVD here .
The DVD has already had at least 3 different release dates including...

She was supposed to be the unhappy, evil Mrs. Peel.... but by the end of the series we get a reason why.... because she has to chase her best friend or else they'll kill him...

a sad vicious circle

Well, she's back on the Esurance site promoting the next Star Trek movie:

(I took a few liberties with her hair colour)

Here's the link:

The Avengers shooting game from 1966 was little more than a plastic dart gun and target set hit the dynamite and up goes the car as the box art says :wink: There was also a code breaking game of sorts in the boxed New Avengers Mission Kit from 1976.

I officially love BBC4.

I recorded their whole evening line-up last night: Ready To Wear, Saville Row, Seven Photographs That Changed, Fashion Style On Trial - the 1950s and the classic movie Blow up .

Looking forward to this too...

a lot better...

What may or may not have happened on other forums should stay on other fourms. :wink: Actually, it's Las Vegas it needs to stay in...

Give me a link to these locations, please. To write all these book reviews on the French site, I had to go through numerous websites and books. None was complete. Some have a part of it, others have another part. Was a bit like a detective work in...

My story, now retitled The Rebirth of the Avengers , can be found at the Avengers Forever website in the section that contains essays written by Avengers fans. It now has a new opening sequence - I discovered that my original one was a near parallel...

Haven't seen him since the old Forum closed - he probably doesn't know we're here!

Me too. Snuck in a vote for the wonderful Margaret Tyzack too!
