One of my favourite Steed and Cathy ones is from Man with Two Shadows. They're sitting on a love seat in the holiday camp Vienna Room smiling with a family in the background (just like in the episode). It's a colour shot and just very aesthetically appealing.
I also love the cover used for The Howard Blake avengers music CD, great shot of steed and Tara from My Wildest Dream.
There are some great back to back shots from early season 5
Love this one as it has my favourite Emma colour outfit.
And I love these shots of Linda from All Done With Mirrors

My favorite is the photo on The Avengers Forever website on The Hour That Never Was page where Steed and Mrs. Peel are laughing uncontrollably.
I've always thought that in that scene they were really under the influence of laughing gas - they weren't just faking it. |

My favourite is the colour shot taken of Rigg and Macnee in the boat relaxing with a smoke in a pause from filming the boating sequence in Silent Dust. It's a fabulous picture and beautifully reproduced on page 88 of Marcus Hearn's lovely coffee table book. (My favourite Avengers book). _________________ The Avengers: a product of the sixties and a timeless piece of sublime art |

I've always loved this erotic shot of Emma from Escape in Time: '1570: Barefoot in the Stocks'.
I think it must be a publicity photo as this shot does not appear in the episode.
And this great action shot of Emma running for her life in Murdersville.

A large reproduction of a well-known photo that can currently be seen in 'The Sixties' exhibition at Tower Bridge, London. I visited it on the 10th July 2014.
I like their expressions and it's certainly one of my favourite Avengers photos.
Accompanying Text:
Patrick NacNee (sic) and Diana Rigg as John Steed and Emma Peel in TV Series 'The Avengers' 1968
The two stars of 1961's cult sci-fi British TV Series The Avengers symbolises the clash of cultures that marked the decade. The Avengers became one of the first British series to be aired on prime time US television. Transforming both actors into household names, Rigg and MacNee became lifelong friends.
Clashing with diabolical masterminds, more like! I was pleased however to see The Avengers chosen as the TV show of the 60's. _________________ Ron

"NacNee" LOL!!! That's the most hilarious misspelling of his name I've yet seen!
I don't think the 1968 date is necessarily correct either, certainly not for that photo. _________________ Last watched: The Man in the Mirror. |

The more I (and I'm sure all the fans) opens a previously unknown photographs "The Avengers," the greater the variety of favorite photos. I personally have a favorite collection of over 100 photos.
The last miracle, this puma with Patrick Macnee (summer 1968).
I simply can not fail to admire it.
However I must admit the photo would looked better with a puma without chain.  _________________ Russian fan-site Steedumbrella.

I notice Patrick had longer sideburns in the Tara era!

She throws such a tough look here that is matchless as magnificient Purdey ! The dagger eyes , terrific body and the shape those legs are in In leopardprint England's No. 2 Sexiest Woman Long Suede Boots, Jacket and Hat combined with Lumley's hauteur make her the woman one girl said she'd love to see the Ex-Avenger in just the Hat and Boots strut in Gambits door in a return as Purdey Lumley at 37 showing she's quite a Stunner Bald [img]https://imageshack.com/f/3o1yidj Now here's a rare shot of England's sexy Avenger Lumley in a spot of bother with rather Fit Dutch Woman Adele Bloemendaal [/img]Adele is obviously a big fan of Purdey but Lumley's 'slanke benen' are no match for the superior leg power, strength and Fitness of her 'rival'  |

High Noon for Mrs Peel in Epic - Diana Rigg keeps her eyes wide open as the Colt fires - a very rare skill. _________________ James/Mrs Emma Peel |
