After the controversial demise of the original Avengers, the cool, suave British secret agent John Steed returned to television screens seven years later. Patrick Macnee was now ably assisted by Purdey, played by the absolutely fabulous Joanna Lumley, while Gareth Hunt as Mike Gambit provided muscular backup, an eagerness to follow in Steed's footsteps and a third side to the witty repartee. Although a "victim" of the fashions of the day, beset by financial problems and ultimately destroyed by French backers, the new trio gamely brought us 26 episodes of glamorous, glittering, tongue-in-cheek, fast-paced, cult British action-adventure!

So here is the list of links to other pages in this set:–
