Women we admire. Although actress Diana Rigg has had a distinguised and diverse career she will forever be remembered as Emma Peel on the 1960s TV series The Avengers. I found Mrs. Peel wonderfully heroic. Not because she was a karate-chopping amazon, but because she seemed to place a great value on human life. In a decade of "bang!--you're dead" secret agents she showed a reluctance to use deadly force except as a last resort. She was strong yet feminine. She also had good manners, didn't smoke, and wasn't into bi-sex. Today's TV and movie heroines could learn a lot from her.       

(Below) I've embedded several YouTube videos on this site but this is the first one of them that I created myself. So thanks to me, ben6121 for allowing me to post it here.
