Steed and "Tintin et Milou"

He is reading two of my favourite Tintin comics "The secret od the Unicorn" and "Tintin in Tibet", which is about a real Chinese friend of Hergé.

It also looks like he's reading "The Blue Lotus" and "The Land Of Black Gold" in French. How Continental!

I read quite a bit of Tintin when I was growing up.

TinTin's absolutely massive in Quebec, and most of the French communities. Anglos read it, too, though.

I remember TinTin cartoons on television. Ah, memories...

I always thought, that Steed was often playing chess in "The Avengers" from season 2 to season 5, but I found only four episodes: Room without a view, Lobster quadrille, Concerto and The Masterminds.

Maybe I missed some?
