Thanks for putting that together. I liked the sweater to doublet quick change. O'Neille

That was awesome! As a "yung'un" I've never seen The Avengers before, but that clip certainly made a good impression! Did you see those Montrose Doublets and how that guy threw a piper's dirk!?! Amazing! I wish I had a Scottish Castle to walk around in with a Montrose Doublet...

I read Patrick McNee's (who played Steed) autobiography a long time ago. Apparently he was sent to live with a rather eccentric aunt, I think, who insisted that he wear a kilt for most of his childhood and adolescence - which I believed he detested.

Does Steed's tartan really matter?

Cheers

I'm afraid I'm with Jamie on this one

Steed who?

That was great, it makes me want to buy the whole movie, I've always been an Avengers fan. I love Dianna Rigg too, what a beauty, but sad to see her in recent films, she looks very unwell.
