Devotees of Diana Rigg's Mrs. Emma Peel will be especially thrilled by this two-volume collection of seven black-and-white episodes that closed out the fourth season of The Avengers in high and often provocative style. One Avengers Web site ranks A Touch of Brimstone among the 10 best episodes of the Mrs. Peel era; What the Butler Saw and Honey for the Prince rank among the top 20.
To these add The House That Jack Built. This mind-bending tour de force finds Mrs. Peel at the mercy of a vengeful techno-obsessed mastermind who has rigged a mansion to drive her insane. Also included in this collection are The Danger Makers, in which umbrella-toting gentleman spy John Steed (Patrick Macnee) and Mrs. Peel uncover a secret society of thrill-crazed soldiers; A Sense of History, about a deadly clique of university students; and How to Succeed... At Murder, in which secretarial assassins take their orders from, yes, a puppet. The mysteries are intriguing, the villains suitably mad, and the banter between Steed and Mrs. Peel charged with erotic possibilities. With the ravishing, knee-weakening sight of Emma decked out as Robin Hood in A Sense of History, as a harem girl in Honey for the Prince, and--be still my beating heart--as the Queen of Sin in A Touch of Brimstone, this Avengers collection boasts very potent Emma a-Peel. --Donald Liebenson | | | | Products related to "Avengers '66: Set 2, Vol. 3 & 4" from Amazon.com | |
