    Very sad to hear this news. The Avengers was quality 1960's television that puts most of the modern chaff that supposed to entertain us to shame.

    Currently being re run nightly on the True Entertainment channel. Absolute quality, and I'm always amazed at how many actors that became household names appear in the series.

    RIP John Steed.

    He was also in the Graf Spee film the Battle of the River Plate which is always on TCM, always loved the way he payed things in the Avengers never quite taking it seriously.
