Growing up in the 60s and 70s I was fascinated by every sci-fi and
fantasy program on the telly back then. Star Trek, Voyage to the

of the Sea, The Time Tunnel, Kung Fu and also her program The
Champions.

My era as well but until yesterday had not heard of Alexandra Bastedo
or The Champions. googles ah, one series of 30 episodes Sep '68 to
Apr 69 on ITV, we didn't have ITV...

I don't think you missed much, apart, perhaps, from seeing Alexandra
Bastedo., if she was to your taste. Mine ran more to Ruth Pearson (and
later Cherie Gillespie) of Pan's People and Goldie Hawn on Rowan and
Martin's Laugh In.

Perdy - The Avengers?


Purdy, as in the gunmaker. I preferred Emma Peel.

Typo.
Purdy was sort of cute, I had a "thing" about her.

I was never keen on Diana Rigg.
