Venus Smith, the forgotten Avengers girl. She was Steed's partner in six 1963 episodes. Fascinatingly different from the other Avengers girls. She had zero combat skills but she was a useful agent. And quite charming.

The Interrogators, a great 1969 Tara King episode of The Avengers, written by Richard Harris and Brian Clemens. Christopher Lee guest stars. Starts with a British agent being interrogated by the bad guys, then the twists begin.

Lost in Space by Dave van Arnam and Ron Archer is as its name suggests a TV tie-in novel inspired by the classic TV series. It's not a bad sci-fi novel but it really doesn't have the feel of the TV series.

@fabianocerqueira Finally finished watching the last bit of UNDERMIND earlier tonight. So good! The first few episodes were slightly patchy, but somewhere around ep #5 it really started to find its feet. The last episode - #11 - kept me guessing right up to the last few minutes and had one of the most down-beat endings ever. Great stuff.
