Celebrating the 1960s icon that is The Avengers, we select triptychs of episodes based around specific themes of the 1960s and today. This is a commentary podcast best listened to with the accompanying episode on DVD, Blu Ray, or streaming.
Pinned
In the first of a new chain of hotels, Richard takes care of the most valuable guests, Brendan watches his pounds on the banana diet, and Steven finds his mattress stuffed with straw in his Room Without a View.

A quick rough comparison of shots from To Catch a Rat from the Optimum DVD and the new HD trailer. Some caveats:
The first three are from the opening titles of To Catch a Rat, so the DVD looks worse than the relevant episodes.
The shots aren't exact frame matches as I wanted to be quick.

Steven’s infiltrating Jeremiah Chechik's secret underground base to find the 2 hour cut of the film, so Richard and Brendan have recalled Nathan and James to deal with the 90 minute visually spectacular disaster that is The Avengers 1998.

Sad news.
When I was about 13 and had just discovered and fallen in love with The Avengers on Channel 4 repeats, I used to marvel at the photos and descriptions in his first guide in a shop in Stockport without ever quite being able to afford it.
Then later bought his ’90s ones (pictured downthread)

Steven's polishing the silverware and Richard's brushing up on global gold exchange rates, which leaves Brendan scrubbing out the 'guest room.' We can hear the sound of empires toppling as we figure out who's trapping whom in The Gilded Cage.

Richard's left money for the eggs, Steven's gotten into a brawl over the booze, and Brendan's thrown himself into a carwash to draw out the Fox. All par for the course as we tour the Canadian countryside with Emily. #TheAvengers #Avengers #Podcast

Our lost episode recovered!
Steven's warming up his Snakes and Ladders, Brendan's broken out his miniature infantry, and Richard's playing cat and mouse with a soldier he judged harshly but fairly 20 years ago. It's all fair Game.

Richard is particularly protective of his homebrew, Steven is particularly permissive of projectiles in the library, and Brendan is particularly perturbed to discover he has four children. This Green Unpleasant Land's first stop is Murdersville. #TheAvengers #Podcast

If I had a dollar for every time a Season 2 Avengers co-star ended up on a cruise ship with a secret mission, I’d have three dollars, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened to all of them.

Sadly, Bristow himself has been making merry with our latest recording, resulting in some missing pieces so we’ll need to find time to set up the board again later this month to finish the Game. We will have a new ep next week though- stay tuned!*
