Thank you for compiling this list, it was wondering about who it all was we lost this last year. It was a year in which we lost many Avengers people, and few will be left soon. |

Thank you for compiling this.
I remember mooring next to Glyn Edwards on the Thames many years ago.
In a nod to his role in Minder, his narrowboat was called *The Winchester". |

What's striking about this list is the number of women on it. For a long time, it was by far the male actors who were dying, a reflection of the fact that women tend to live a little longer but more the fact that most of the female guest stars were younger than their male counterparts at the time of the filming of The Avengers. But the years are now catching up to all them (to us, too!). It's sad to see them go. |
