      I only ever knew her as a host of Masterpiece Theater: Home | Masterpiece | Official Site | PBS[^]

        She appeared in Theatre of Blood, a dark comedy in which Vincent Price played a Shakespearean actor who sets out to murder the critics who panned him, killing each of them by re-staging a death scene from one of Shakespeare's plays. The actors who played the critics were actually all renowned British Shakespearean actors. One of my all-time favourite films.

          Thank you - I need to hunt this one down. (Sounds like VP was typecast for a while - this sounds like the basic plot of Dr. Phibes as well, although that was killing via the curses of Egypt)

            You will not be disappointed. A lot of good performances, especially VP, Diana Rigg, and Robert Morley.

                  The Avengers opening titles - YouTube[^] Oh I had a crush on her as a youngster, for sure. She was a killer in a cat suit!! Or perhaps as a dominatrix. Style and Grace..and a Boot to the Face! - YouTube[^]

                    OMG! :omg: This brings back memories. Is this the best opening titles (and theme tune) of any TV program? Ever!

                      The Avengers with Emma Peel was by far the best. Loved it. Sad day. RIP.

                        One of those special pretty faces that you never tire of. And those cheekbones! Up there with Julie Newmar (cat woman) in a catsuit.
