63 years ago today, #TheAvengers debuted on British television. From 1961-9, 161 episodes were produced, both in B/W and color.

John Steed teamed up with various partners, including Dr. Keel, Cathy Gale, Emma Peel, Tara King - and for a few nerdy bonus points we'll throw in Dr. King & Venus Smith.

My father was a fan of #TheAvengers - the British spy TV series that ran from 1961-9. That passion trickled down to me as I explore the many different eras: #DavidKeel, #CathyGale, #EmmaPeel, & #TaraKing.

Really been enjoying #BigFinish’s audio recreations of Season 1 - which for the most part have been lost to time. Fun to “see” #JohnSteed’s development into the gentleman spy we all know and love. #BritishTV #RetroTV #NoIronMan
