Death at bargain prices...

It's really strange, but did you ever notice that alot of secret agents die, but never Emma or Steed? There are so many good agents, but they just die!
And it's the same with Emma's and also Steed's friends. In many episodes the viewers are introduced to some good friends of Emma and Steed but suddenly they die!
So have they still friends, if every episode die someone of them??? :)
It's a really silly thought, I know, but I was thinking about it and if I would loose so many of my friends I would be alone...

:) ???

Thoughts...

Today seems to be one of those crazy days on which I start to think about different things and become very melancholical. It's just one of these this on which I feel very sad and could cry about a silly video at youtube where Emma leaves "The Avengers"

So I started thinking again about Patrick Macnee and it makes me feel quite unconfortable. I don't know why but there is something about him that touched me deep inside.
Does anybody know what he's doing the last years? Is he happy? Is he sitting all day long in his house thinking about the things that happened?
I don't know.

I've got the feeling that The Avengers was the only thing that made him happy. He had a lot of friends there, Honor Blackman, Diana Rigg who helped him trough the hard times he had. While the others left the show he still was there - believing in the perfect world they showed in The Avengers. But alone. Diana, who was the women he trusted in wasn't there anymore.
He never will forget these years with The Avengers, it wasn't a project for him it was his life - his whole life! I think he was very happy when they started with TNA and very sad when all was over.
There he was - again alone - no Diana. I'm sure it wasn't easy for him. Nothing was easy for him.. when I was reading the book "The Avengers and me", I was convinced that he did live for The Avengers - ther he had joy and now it's over.

I would like to say to him: Patrick, you did a great job! You have changed the life of so many people out there. Don't worry. It was the best thing you've ever done!
I would like to talk to him. Ask him about his feelings, the plans he had...
But I will never have this chance...Never. All the others could leave the Avengers behind. He couldn't. Never.

The New Avengers

For me TNA have been always more in the backround compared with TA, but now I've started to love this episodes too :) so therefore I have collected some pictures for all TNA - Fans
Hope you like them.

Picture of the day

The British sense of humour

What I like about The Avengers is the typical British humour. That's absolutely great. Although in very seriouse situations Steed and also Emma are making jokes.
One of my favourite is this:

A surfeit of H2O

Steed remarks the place where they have found the death body in the grass:

"I had an auntie who used to make biscuits like this."

I love this, there are of course more quotes like this one, but it's not easy to understand them - I only know them in german

Cathy Gale Episodes

In my opinion this episodes aren't as popular as all the others. But it's difficult for me to analyse why. I like Cathy - indeed. She has is a great charcater - very female, ironic, clever...
But I have problems with the episodes. Something is missing. I don't know if it's because I don't understand well what they are talking about - I have the DVD's, but it seems that the sound isn't good and they talk so fast! It's easier for me to understand Emma, Tara and Purdey (and there are also german DVD's available)

So could you explain the problems with the Cathy Gale area? what do you think?
