For my birthday, Dawn has agreed to watch an episode of "The Avengers" (1961-1969) *and* one of "The Prisoner" (1967-1968). She is truly the most tolerant of women. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Avengers_(TV_series) … https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Prisoner …
Uh, sorry, that was officially called “A Touch of Brimstone.” https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0516805/ … The episodes around then were all really good

I think you're about my age. I got attached to "The Avengers" at CalTech in 1977. Dawn is tolerant, but I suspect that my nostalgia for the show is more about who I was then than its inherent quality.

I discovered The Avengers only about ten years ago, which suggests that the merit of the show goes beyond nostalgia. Although maybe it has something to do with my nostalgic attachment to Britishness, sensibly not shared by
@_awbery_ who is more British than me. - 7 more replies
