Avengers Picspam ("The Superlative Seven" 1967)

Sep 28, 2014 18:27

I realised recently that I obviously had never picspammed this episode of The Avengers, which I watched early this year. I don't know how eager you all are to see James Maxwell in a silly costume, but there is also Emma Peel. No excuse is needed for picspams involving Diana Rigg as Emma Peel, obviously. Her awesome is reason enough in itself ( Read more... )

Gods, I need to rewatch The Avengers. Just because Diana Rigg. I've adored her FOREVER. And I haven't seen TA since I was wee.

Thank you for reminding me of Peel and her Kick-Ass.

*SQUISHES YOU*

I never saw it before Liadt sent me these eps she had going spare, but my Dad is a huge fan & so I've always vaguely known about it. (It took me until recently to realise the significance of the fact that his three big celebrity crushes are Honor Blackman, Diana Rigg, and Joanna Lumley. And that my youngest sister is called Emma. Though that may be coincidence... :lol:)

My pleasure! All people should be reminded of how awesome Diana Rigg & Emma Peel are, at least once in a while. Even if they haven't met them yet. :-)

Luckily she avoids hitting the lights and only gets the host of the Generation Game, winning herself a champagne filled teddy bear.
Poor Brucie! What's going to happen to Strictly Come Dancing?

OMG, the hats. No wonder they needed all the champagne.

It's okay - I made that bit up! :-)

Silly hats galore in this episode! James Maxwell is definitely the silliest, though.

A nice and timely Diana Rigg picspam - I'm watching her tonight, only on telly alas.

Best plane interior ever.

Coffins for (nearly) all! (This is actually more thoughtful than most master villains; funeral costs are really quite steep, so good on them for helping out the grieving relatives.) Lol

Ha, ha that's what outside looked like in the 60's, it looks fake because of the change in the ozone layer(!).

\o/ The ep DOES need more Mrs Peel though. Even though they tried to bribe me by putting Donald Sutherland in it;)

And now you must demand the b/w Peel set for Xmas: an ace xmas ep, Steed's silly army disguises, actual drinking and driving! (prob not that unexpected tbh), Steed's common model double, Ems as Robin Hood, more Steed saving by Emma action, everybody you've seen in everything else! Possible Alfred Burke!

My timing was obviously on purpose! :-)

But the sets are too expensive to ask for Christmas presents! I want OUaT S3 first and some other bits and pieces, and so it'll have to wait until the stars align for me and it someday.

Mrs Peel up a tree being all Shakespearean, yeah!

Sort it Santa! If you don't mind no frills releases there is Der Wreckers. I have the colour Peel set, which is why I got rid of my old colour DVDs:)
