Sad to hear it. She was a fine actress, and I SO had the hots for her as Mrs. Peel!

She made it easy to spot queers back in the 60’s...if you didn’t have one of her posters on your bedroom wall; you were queer. It was a pretty good rule of thumb.

“Did a search and it didn’t show up.

I don’t see a problem with something like this,a one time event, not some ongoing poltical fight. People check in to FR at diff hours, so they might miss things such as this if it’s only mentioned once.
Many of us spent a good part of our youth being entranced by Emma Peel.

I loved her dearly. My dad enjoyed the Avengers and let me watch it with him. I was eight. Good memories. Rest in peace, my love.

Some of the Post Nazi's do nothing but sit on this site all day.

Probably does get old reading the same thing over and over.

I'd probably think about finding something else to do now and then.

They could have put her picture next to the word “fetching” in the dictionary.

A big part of her allure was that she seemed to be clever. Don’t know if she really was.
