Hmm. Watch it again and see if there's a character called 'Katy Storm' or something...Charlie Parker wrote:Box of Tricks it was.. but I'm puzzled as to what Cathy's role could of been, would it of been a major re-write or just renaming a character and juggling a few lines?Timeless A-Peel wrote:There was meant to be an episode with all three, yes. Don't recall if it was Box of Tricks though...Dandy Forsdyke wrote:Wasn't Box of Tricks originally intended to be a Steed/Cathy/Venus episode?
Venus Smith : Partner or not ?

sounds reasonable..Venus might have ben a semi major player in the scope of the show, but as always, fate has a funny way of side trackingTimeless A-Peel wrote:That's right. Steed and Keel were meant to hang about a nightclub in further episodes and get to know the jazz singer. Then Hendry left unexpectedly, so the character was sort of a hangover from season one, and the show sort of evolved beyond her before she even got up on screen. They probably used her as a stop-gap more than anything, so that they could film something while they tried to cast Cathy. That's probably why she doesn't fit. It wasn't the same show anymore.Dandy Forsdyke wrote:As I understand it she was added to the cast to share the second season with Dr Keel.Artanis wrote:I like Venus' character but the most annoying thing is how she always get captured and Steed has to save her. She doesn't seem to be worth all that trouble for just the little help she provides.
people, places, and things...Did Steed have the 'eyes' for Venus ? not really...at least, I don't think so...
Hendry's departure was a blow, but the show recovered nicely, and Hendry's movie career, really never reached the heights, he thought possible..same goes for Patrick...Both Honor and Diana, had a more productive cinema career..for the most part.

Just spent a very enjoyable lunch listening to Julie Stevens commentary to A Chorus Of Frogs. Interestingly, Julie does regard herself as an 'Avenger girl', so why not.
She's a delight on the commentary by the way. She's never seen these episodes before (as they were often screened a day after recording) and it's a treat to hear here.
Interestingly she was a regular Avengers viewer before she was in it, so knew she was going into a big Saturday night TV show.
