Dame Diana Rigg has died at 82...

Loved just about everything I ever saw her in.

For those young people who never saw her in the Avengers, at least they were able to see her in Game of Thrones.

R.I.P. Mrs. Peel.

Mrs. Peel was on my very short list of favorite tv characters back in the day. The Avengers show was paying Diana Rigg less than the cameramen, so she quit after 2 or 3 seasons when they wouldn't pay her comparably to the male actors. Beautiful, talented, and stood up for herself.

What he said. =(

Tidbits:
1994; DBE (Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire)
Michael Parkinson, who first interviewed Rigg in 1972, described her as the most desirable woman he ever met and who "radiated a lustrous beauty".

Al Bundy on 'phone ordering videos of "The Avengers":
"Do you have one where she kicks really really high? Hee-hee-hee."

The Hidden Tiger 1967
The Superlative Seven 1967
Dead Man's Treasure 1967
You Have Just Been Murdered 1967
The Forget-Me-Knot 1968

You need to capitalize Dame and how dare you assume their gender?

That was the point, use of the regular case of dame... as in...

We've got sunlight on the sand. We've got moonlight on the sea. We've got mangos and bananas we can pick right off a tree. We've got volleyball and ping-pong and a lot of dandy games. What ain't we got? We ain't got dames!
