RIP Agent Steed.
You and Emma gave me so many pleasurable hours. Jun 25 15 02:07 pm Link Patrick Macnee dies at 93. https://youtu.be/KUQzNIxGLyM http://variety.com/2015/tv/news/patrick … 201528377/ Jun 25 15 02:14 pm Link  Jun 25 15 02:16 pm Link *sigh* Ah, another major loss and one that hits me particularly hard. Yep, I will fully cop to the fact that The Avengers was one of the very first pop culture artifacts that had a defining effect on my developing psyche, presenting me with three of the coolest characters ever to slink, snark, and smirk their way across a TV screen (Dr. Cathy Gale, Mr. John Steed, and Mrs. Emma Peel). It was one of my favorite shows while living in Canada in the mid-60s, along with Thunderbirds, The Monkees... and Magistrate's Court, which puzzled my Mom to no end. Thank you, Patrick, and may ye rest in peace. Jun 25 15 02:41 pm Link Well, at least we can enjoy his contributions in reruns. It's running on a local station but the later ones after Diana Riggs left the show. One of the better memories of my earlier years. Very enjoyable and at times, very smart. Jun 25 15 02:48 pm Link loved that show. rip and let's not forget one of his more memorable performances on the big screen, as sir denis eton-hogg, in 'this is spinal tap'. great stuff. Jun 25 15 03:12 pm Link  Nice boots! They look like fins. Jun 25 15 05:53 pm Link GK photo wrote:
Jun 25 15 06:05 pm Link I was just looking up this story. Slightly OT, but it had completely went over my head that "Ms. Peel," Diana Rigg, has a recurring role on Game of Thrones. Jun 25 15 06:58 pm Link the avenengers was my most favorite series! seen every single one since its conception. Jun 25 15 07:03 pm Link RIP Patrick They never overtly said it, but I'm convinced that Steed was banging Emma. Jun 25 15 11:13 pm Link Loved the show. Had such a crush on Diana Rigg. Patrick Macnee lived a long life and entertained millions of people. A good legacy, by any standard. Jun 25 15 11:45 pm Link I also enjoyed The Avengers.
