Steven's warming up his Snakes and Ladders, Brendan's broken out his miniature infantry, and Richard's playing cat and mouse with a soldier he judged harshly but fairly 20 years ago. It's all fair Game.The Three Handed Game is an Australian commentary podcast for the 1960s television classic, The Avengers. NEXT EPISODE: The Green Unpleasant Land kicks off with the seminal Emma Peel centric episode, Murdersville.(A note to this listening in February-March 2025. This pre-empts our episode on Game, which we hope will be with you soon)Please drop us a review on Apple Podcasts, and send us your thoughts via Bluesky, Facebook, X, or by email at thethreehandedgame@gmail.com.Music CreditsFaster Does It Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
The Earth has once again fallen under the thrall of some wizened cadaverous monsters, who demand our love, our loyalty, and our uncritical acceptance of the Great Monk theory of history. And the only way to throw off their yoke is with a lot of laborious exposition. It's The Lie of the Land. Notes and links Simon quotes from the Yes, Prime Minister episode The Bishop's Gambit (1986), which discusses the Church of England's dual roles as a religion and as “part of the rich social fabric of this country”. The Doctor's broadcasts from a ship somewhere outside the five-mile limit inevitably remind several of us of an episode of The Goodies called Radio Goodies (1970), in which the trio broadcast a pirate radio station into the UK from international waters, satirising real-world events chronicled in the Richard Curtis film The Boat That Rocked (2009). We've mentioned it before: Doctor Who: The Complete History is a ninety-volume book series covering the series from 1963 to 2017, which means that this episode comes up in Volume 88. The books themselves were beautifully produced, but the series is also available digitally.

I was hoping something would develop. And more You can find links to all of the podcasts we're involved in on our podcasts page. But here's a summary of where we're up to right now. 500 Year Diary is our latest new Doctor Who podcast, going back through the history of the show and examining new themes and ideas. Its first season came out early this year, under the title New Beginnings. Check it out. It will be back for a second season early in 2025. The Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire has broadcast our hot takes on every new episode of Doctor Who since November last year, and it will be back again in 2025 for Season 2. Last week, Brendan and Bjay's gaming podcast The Bjay BJ Game Show released their latest episode, in which they discuss Lost in Play (2022), a point-and-click adventure set in the imagination of two young children. Brendan, Richard and Steven also recently released another episode of their Avengers podcast The Three Handed Game. It's the first episode of their triptych The Pop Explosion, covering a monochrome Emma Peel episode called Death at Bargain Prices, in which Steed and Mrs Peel go undercover in a London department store and discover a plot to blow up much of the city. And finally there's our Star Trek commentary podcast, Untitled Star Trek Project, featuring Nathan and friend-of-the-podcast Joe Ford. This week, we roared with laughter as Marina Sirtis turned fabulously evil in an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation called Man of the People.
This week, Tom Salinsky joins us for a World War III–adjacent chat in Madeupistan, while a global apocalypse is self-organising somewhere in Yorkshire. Also, some scary people keep trying to invite us to a free Bible study. It's The Pyramid at the End of the World. Notes and links Brendan compares Extremis to Star Trek: Voyager's Course: Oblivion, which also kills its entire regular cast. Nathan and Joe were not kind to this episode when they watched if for Untitled Star Trek Project. Tom refers to his own less-than-enthusiastic review of Extremis in a blog post from way back in 2017. Joe 90 was a Gerry and Sylvia Anderson supermarionation show from 1968–69, which stars a nine-year-old super spy who wears special glasses which contain the brain patterns of expert adults and enable him to do all of his spy stuff. James refers to Star Trek: The Next Generation's Commander William T Riker as someone who, like the monks, has a real fetish for consent. This deep cut is a reference to the Star Trek podcast The Greatest Generation, which you are only allowed to listen to after you've finished all of Untitled Star Trek Project. The Andromeda Strain is a 1969 book by Michael Crichton and a 1971 film directed by Robert Wise (The Sound of Music, Star Trek: The Motion Picture). In it, an extraterrestrial microbe gets loose in a research station and the staff need to prevent the station's nuclear self-destruct system from releasing an irradiated version of the the microbe into the environment. The Tralfamadorians are time-aware aliens who appear in a couple of Kurt Vonnegut's novels, most notably Slaughterhouse-Five (1969).

In this episode, we spoke with author Herbie J. Piato about his latest book "One Tough Dame: The Life and Times of Diana Rigg".One Tough Dame: The Life and Career of Diana Rigg offers a sweeping portrait of the revered performer's life and career. Deemed a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1994, Diana Rigg (1938–2020) initially found fame as super sleuth Mrs. Emma Peel in the 1960s BBC/ABC-TV espionage series The Avengers.

I know what you're thinking - WTF Happened to The Avengers? Nothing, it was one of the biggest hits ever. Not so fast - we're not talking about the Marvel superhero team-up that shot the MCU into the stratosphere. Instead, we're talking about 1998's misbegotten remake of the classic British spy series, The Avengers. On paper, this should have been a great movie. The Avengers was a classic British TV series starring Patrick Macnee and Diana Rigg as super spy agents John Steed and Emma Peel. Their “will they or won't they” chemistry influenced everything from Cheers to Moonlighting, and the show still runs daily in the UK. Given that the show was always considered the best Eurospy franchise outside of James Bond, it should have turned into a massive franchise for Warner Bros. The cast was next-level, with Uma Thurman playing Emma Peel, Ralph Fiennes as John Steed, and James Bond himself, Sean Connery, as the main villain, Sir August de Wynter. So what went wrong? Just about everything, as we'll dig into in this episode of WTF Happened to this Movie.For one thing, the finished version of the film clocked in at 89 minutes, about a half hour shorter than intended. Director Jeremiah Chechik found himself saddled with a finished film that didn't make a lick of sense. Given the issues with the cut, instead of being a summer blockbuster, it was dumped to the same late-summer dumping ground we find ourselves in right now (there's a reason nothing really opens until after Labor Day). So dig in and check out this tale of the spy franchise that wasn't. For more MOVIE NEWS, visit: http://www.joblo.com
Maddy, Ryan, and Todd convened in person (!!) to watch an episode of 1960s television that has lived in infamy for Chris Claremont and all X-Men fans. The show is called The Avengers (but not *those* Avengers), and the episode is called "A Touch of Brimstone" because it's about the Hellfire Club. We discuss the incomparable Emma Peel, the inspiration for Emma Frost, as well as all of the other unexpected inspirations in this episode.

Die aktuellen Wirtschaftsnachrichten mit Michael Weyland Thema heute: „BRAVO«-Starschnitte. Eine Sammlung von Legenden“ in der Kunst- und Kulturstiftung Opelvillen in Rüsselsheim Foto: The Beatles © Sparkassenstiftung Lüneburg Ich oute mich jetzt mal als älteren Herrn, der im April 1956 geboren wurde. Jaja, ich weiß, ich bin ein Aprilscherz. Vermutlich hat der Verlag deshalb mit der Erstauflage der BRAVO bis zum 26. August 1956 gewartet. Die Startauflage betrug 30.000 Exemplare, der Verkaufspreis 50 Pfennig. Foto: ABBA © Sparkassenstiftung Lüneburg Die damalige Jugend investierte fast ihr gesamtes, damals recht karges, Taschengeld in die Zeitschrift, im ersten Quartal 1966 erreichte die Auflage erstmals die Millionengrenze und im ersten Quartal 1991 mit 1,58 Millionen Exemplaren ihren Höchststand. Die vermutlich wichtigsten Bestandteile in all den Jahren waren Dr. Sommer als Beziehungs- und Aufklärungsratgeber und – der Starschnitt, der sicherlich auch ein gutes Marketinginstrument war. Denn je nachdem, aus wie vielen Teilen sich die lebensgroßen Poster zusammensetzten, konnte es Monate dauern, bis man den Star oder die Gruppen komplett hatte. Foto: Brigitte Bardot © Sparkassenstiftung Lüneburg Starschnitt Nr. Eins war übrigens Brigitte Bardot! Insgesamt wurden es im Laufe der Jahre 118 Starschnitte. Darunter fanden sich aus der Musikwelt Peter Kraus genauso wie Elvis Presley, natürlich waren für die einen die Beatles, für die andern die Rolling Stones dabei. Die Jüngeren wurden mit Madonna und Britney Spears bedient. Dass auch Abba dabei war, ist keine Frage. Natürlich kamen auch Sportler wie Schwimmolympiasieger Mark Spitz und „unser Boris“ vor und Filmstars wie Marylin Monroe waren dabei. Und dass Jürgen Drews einmal der König von Mallorca würde, war 1976 jedenfalls noch nicht abzusehen. 1974 war sogar die Männerfußballnationalmannschaft Starschnitt. Das wäre heute eher unvorstellbar! Foto: Madonna © Sparkassenstiftung Lüneburg Die meisten Teile hatte übrigens die Gruppe „Village People“ mit 53, da musste man ein Jahr lang Woche für Woche zum Kiosk und die brandneue BRAVO erwerben und man musste schnell sein, damit man den nächsten Teil des Puzzles garantiert bekam. Wie steht es im Pressetext? Man stelle sich vor, Suzi Quattro ohne Knie und Busen. Foto: Suzi Quattro © Sparkassenstiftung Lüneburg Insgesamt wurden 190 Personen abgebildet, davon nur 30 Frauen! Das ging heute GAR nicht mehr. Für mich war übrigens Diana Rigg alias Emma Peel das Maß der Dinge! Also um es auf den Punkt zu bringen. Der Besuch ist definitiv ein MUSS! Die Ausstellung „BRAVO«-Starschnitte. Eine Sammlung von Legenden“ ist noch bis 1. Oktober 2023 in der Kunst- und Kulturstiftung Opelvillen in Rüsselsheim zu sehen.

Para haber sido considerada por años como un producto de una era pretérita, como una obra simple y populista, vaya qué sorprende la forma o, mejor dicho, las formas en que Les vampires ha influido década tras década desde su estreno serializado entre fines de 1915 y principios de 1916. Realizada por Louis Feuillade a partir del gran éxito de Fantómas (1913), los diez capítulos de Los vampiros son el punto origen del modo en que llegamos a entender el cine de acción y aventuras del siglo XX y anticipan de modo fascinante nuestra actual dependencia de superhéroes y supervillanos que se persiguen sin cesar de un filme a otro. Feuillade buscaba reproducir en pantalla el frenesí y la ansiedad que generaba el folletín literario, pero en el camino descubrió unas cuantas cosas que no estaban en su plan original: la creciente obsesión por el "underground", un orden de cosas paralelo que reproduce y pervierte la realidad del mundo vigil, y el gradual reemplazo de la tradicional figura del villano (encarnado por diversos machos alfa que van sucumbiendo ante los héroes) por la inquietante presencia de Irma Vep, malhechora porfiada e irreductible (antecedente directa de Gatúbela, Modesty Blaise, Emma Peel y un cuanto hay de intrépidas enfundadas en traje de malla y látex), una sombra que va ganando en agencia, libertad y locura, hasta tragarse el filme al completo, apoyada en el indeleble rostro y presencia de Musidora, actriz inmortal. De eso y más se habla en este podcast.
Much ado about Miatas: We are joined by Bob Hall, one of the founding fathers of the original MX-5 Miata. Among the unique questions that are answered: What pricing number is considered lucky in Japan and China? Why was the original Miata priced higher than it needed to be and why did the price point help Mazda sell more of them? How did Japanese car models in particular end up on a 4 year product refresh cycle? How much cargo can you fit in an MX-5? How simplicity adds elegance and profit? All this and much more in this first of a two part episode with Bob Hall. Shameless plugs: 1978 Toyota Corollas. 1960's Lotus', maybe all of them. Emma Peel.

First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on June 26th 2022 This week we welcome back one of our regular contributors, the encyclopaedic and telly fact-filled mind that belongs to STEVE HATCHER, who has suggested that we might want to talk about the movie spin-offs and adaptations of television series that used to feature prominently in the cinemas in the fifties, sixties, and seventies, several of which proved to be very successful, and some of which were decidedly less so. Some of these films have gone on to become the more familiar versions of series that no longer seem to get much airtime simply through their regular appearances on television over the years and decades since they were made, and for many viewers, they might even have become the definitive versions of a whole host of television favourites. Often these films were adaptations of much-loved sitcoms, but also several drama series were deemed worthy of being transferred to the big screen, in colour, sometimes featuring the original television cast, and sometimes bearing little relationship whatsoever with the source material. STEVE has picked out five dramas (as well as five sitcoms which we're going to talk about some other time), for us to talk about as specifically British examples that demonstrate the various ways in which these adaptations were achieved by the film-makers of those eras, and, whilst our conversation might touch upon a few others that spring to mind, it's those five films that we are going to mostly focus our attention on. So sit back as we mull over the most exciting colourful eccentricities of DR WHO AND THE DALEKS, the colourfully dark and compelling re-imagining of QUATERMASS AND THE PIT in the London Underground Station at Hobb's End, the strangely detached environmental disaster that prompts the DOOMWATCH team to not exactly leap into action themselves but instead nominate a proxy, the government assassin CALLAN somehow managing to revisit his own past, and the bizarre, much-truncated, late 1990s re-invention of John Steed and Mrs Emma Peel in THE AVENGERS. We might not get the time to cover all them in any great depth, so there'll be little in the way of my usual VISION ON SOUND nonsenses of the kind that point out details like the future Roj Blake turning up working at Hobb's End that I might usually start to weave the interconnectedness of all things around to intrigue you with, especially as one of those five films does actually obliquely name-check this very show, but I hope you'll enjoy this quick time-trip through some great TV shows dressed up in their best clothes for their various trips to the ROXY and the REGAL. And once we've got back to base, STEVE will return in a few weeks time for a follow-up in which we chat in much the same way about those sitcoms.

First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on April 24th 2022 A little over sixty years ago, a television series began that would, in many ways, come to encapsulate a particular view of nineteen sixties Britain that never really went away. It was so popular in certain countries that this particular image of Britain and the British seems to have stuck in their minds and shaped their perception of us ever since. Or perhaps one version of it has, anyway, because THE AVENGERS, the series PAUL CHANDLER, THE SHY YETI, is joining me to talk about today, went through several incarnations – and lapel carnations – as it progressed through most of the 1960s from its grey, grimy, and gritty origins in 1961, to its colourful, almost pop-art, last hurrah in 1969, and, in many ways, could be said to almost reflect that transformational decade on screen like almost no other television series of its time. Featuring PATRICK MACNEE as John Steed, a charmingly eloquent, and dapper, spy, who wears a bowler hat sometimes cast in stainless steel, and who carries a rolled umbrella which sometimes conceals a sword, who spends his professional career dealing with diabolical master minds intent upon some fiendish, eccentric, and freedom-threatening plot, usually with the assistance of a strong, plucky woman who seems far more adept at handling the rough stuff than he could ever hope to be. CATHY GALE, EMMA PEEL, and TARA KING were those fabulous, ground-breaking, and astonishingly independent women, and were played by three actors destined to become almost as iconic as the series itself: HONOR BLACKMAN, DIANA RIGG, and LINDA THORSEN. Although those other, grittier incarnations, also featured JULIA STEVENS as VENUS SMITH, JON ROLLASON as DR MARTIN KING, and the sublime and ridiculously talented IAN HENDRY who, as DR DAVID KEEL, was there right at the start, might be the person we have to thank for the series even existing at all, but who then chose to leave to pursue other career options, leaving JOHN STEED to step into the breech, and become the calm centre around which the series would carry on though such astonishing changes, not only in the lead actors, but from the technical point of view of switching from live studio videotape, to black and white, and later colour film, and a very successful penetration into the American market. In fact, if any show could be said to demonstrate the evolution of British television in the 1960s, I think THE AVENGERS may be the one that shows it off best, so much so that anyone who watched the 1961 version would barely recognise it as the same show if they tuned in again in 1969, with MOTHER and RHONNDA adding to the cast of eccentric regulars to battle each week with the very cream of 1960s acting talent. This other brainchild of Canadian Television supremo SYDNEY NEWMAN might not be your idea of what the Britain of the 1960s was really like, but it certainly is an image that has persisted since it first aired back in 1961 as a replacement for another series featuring its main star as a police surgeon, right through to its final episode in 1969, and the series was so internationally successful that it even got a fairly successful two year reimagining in the mid-1970s featuring PURDEY and GAMBIT as played by JOANNA LUMLEY and GARETH HUNT. PAUL is unashamedly a fan of the final year featuring TARA KING, so our conversation does inevitably spend a lot of time covering that era, but we do our best to give you a broader overview on our way there.

This week's episode sees Caimh give his shortest ever introduction (yay!) before the smashing Phil Nichol's provides you with an aural sensation narrating the new short story, What Is and What Should Never Be. This Stranger Times story features Led Zeppelin, Scrabble, a musical quest and the Avenger's Emma Peel.
Thanks to Fantom Publishing for the following:“They keep throwing her off cliffs and things. Sometimes they hang her up by the feet and stand around cackling fiendishly. Sometimes they dip her head first in cold water. Cyd Child is the easygoing type, she doesn't take umbrage. That's her job. She's a stunt girl.” – Martin White, Evening Echo (Dec 1967).Christine Gallie is a 7th Dan who trained at the Budokwai in London, becoming the first woman to be allowed to train with the men's elite class. Amongst her many titles are European Champion and six times British Open Champion. Brian Jacks once hailed Christine as “the innovator of women's competition judo.” Christine was the first woman in this country to get 5th Dan and then 6th Dan.Under the stage name of Cyd Child, she became one of the foremost stunt performers in the UK, working on film franchises such as James Bond, Superman and The Pink Panther, as well as television classics such as The Goodies, Space: 1999 and UFO. But it is for The Avengers where she has received greatest acclaim, in her role as double for Emma Peel and Tara King, and then Purdey in The New Avengers.This autobiography is a celebration of Cyd's colourful life and her dual careers in judo and stunt performance, and contains hundreds of previously unseen photos from her personal archives. Foreword by Joanna Lumley, Brian Jacks and Elizabeth Viney.https://www.fantompublishing.co.uk/product/cyd-child-judo-the-avengers-and-me/https://linktr.ee/NeilAdamsPodcast https://linktr.ee/StuartWilliamsPodcasts
Tread Perilously enters the annual "Tread Merrily" festivities with the thoroughly British spy series The Avengers and its Christmas-infused episode, "Too Many Christmas Trees." It's the night before Christmas Eve Day and John Steed has been having disturbing dreams about a fellow in the Intelligence section, Father Christmas, and his own reflection. Emma Peel expresses some concern, but invites him to a party at the manor home of famed Charles Dickens collector Brandon Storey. Little does she realize, though, that the source of Steed's problems awaits them at the party. Will a night dressed as Sydney Carton and Oliver Twist lead to an experiment with telepathy? Justin pitches his own stylish 60s spy series with a low-key name: The Conversationalists. Erik proves to have better knowledge of Dickens than Justin. He also reveals the unlikely origins of The Avengers. The British Empire takes a beating. Geography Corner takes on a culinary tone as the pair both praise local eatery The Hat and warn against what it does to their stomachs. The Bond connection gets mentioned, as does The Avengers feature film. Justin ponders the unintentionally horrifying Father Christmas mask in the episode and the nature of the telepaths leads to "the slowest way to kill someone."
The Avengers was a classic ITV espionage series from the 1960s. It included some science-fiction elements and is often considered a “spy-fi” show. It isn't related to the Marvel Superhero franchise that has the same name. In this two-part discussion, we're talking about series four and five (1965 – 1968) featuring Patrick Macnee as John […]

We've been at the laughing potion again. For her birthday, Linda gets another movie she's wished to cover since we started the podcast: The Worst Witch! It's the original film, made in 1986, based on Jill Murphy's 'Worst Witch' book series. It stars Fairuza Balk (witch goddess) as Mildred, the 'worst witch'; Diana Rigg (Olenna Tyrell in GoT, Emma Peel in 'The Avengers', Ms. Collins in Last Night in Soho, a total smokeshow) as Miss Hardbroom; Charlotte Rae (Ms. Edna Garrett in 'Fact of Life') as Miss Cackle and Agatha; and Tim Curry (you know...Tim Curry) as the The Grand Wizard all the witches lust after. Listen in as we cover this childhood classic, share some behind-the-scenes information, and discuss Agatha's dubious upbringing! Meow. Meow.

Ce jour là une Auto. Cette semaine c'est une femme qui est à l'honneur : Emma Peel. Personnage fictif de la série télévisée Chapeau melon et bottes de cuir, son rôle était interprété par Diana Rigg, puis Linda Thorson et finalement Johanna Lumley. Le nom du personnage d'Emma Peel vient d'un jeu de mots avec « Man Appeal » ou « M. Appeal » (qui attire l'homme - charmeuse d'hommes), ce qui pour l'équipe de production correspondait à un des éléments requis du personnage.
After a teenage publishing career of film fandom and criticism, Sam Irvin's first professional job came on the set of Brian De Palma's The Fury. Quickly, and for the next few years, he would become De Palma's assistant and a jack of all trades on movies from Fury to Dressed to Kill, before starting his own directing career and eventually coming back to film writing. On today's episode, joined once again by Ted Haycraft, we discuss:- Irvin's early career writing about Hammer films and interviewing actors like Vincent Price and Emma Peel;- his first contact with De Palma, then casting Carrie alongside George Lucas (who was then casting Star Wars) by inviting him to a film festival at his college;- and how that led to Irvin braving a phone call asking to work on The Fury.Also:- Interacting with the established crew for The Fury's Chicago crew;- why it's difficult to see the first film one worked on objectively;- his work with a young filmmakers Mark Romanek and Keith Gordon on Fury, Home Movies, and Dressed to Kill;- how Irvin progressed this to his first short and feature films.Sam Irvin is a veteran director, producer and screenwriter for movies and television who began his career as the assistant to Brian De Palma. His directing credits include Guilty as Charged (Rod Steiger, Lauren Hutton, and Heather Graham), Out There (Bill Campbell and Billy Bob Thornton), Elvira's Haunted Hills (Elvira, Mistress of the Dark), and Fat Rose and Squeaky (Louise Fletcher and Cicely Tyson). Irvin also co-executive produced Bill Condon's Academy Award-winning motion picture, Gods and Monsters, and wrote the book, Kay Thompson: From Funny Face to Eloise. Irvin also teaches graduate courses on directing at the University of Southern California School of Cinematic arts and resides in Los Angeles.The Fury is currently streaming on Starz and available on VOD and Blu-ray.
Die (un)sichtbare Frau - Warum ich lieber Emma Peel bin und so andere Frauen empowere. Die 100-Tage-Netzwerkchallenge. Jetzt schon in der 2. Staffel! Heute mit Christine. Viel Spaß beim Zuhören! Wie netzwerkt man eigentlich, wenn man keinen Bock auf Netzwerken hat? Es fing alles mit einer völlig bescheuerten Idee kurz nach dem Aufwachen an. Nachdem wir die erste Staffel mit den Schwerpunkten Macht, Verhandeln und Sichtbarkeit in Netzwerken für unsere Coachees fertiggestellt hatten, wollten wir wissen, wie man Menschen das Netzwerken näher bringen kann, die Netzwerken hassen. Das führte zu einer 100-Tage-Schreibchallenge in einer ironisch-kritischen Schreibgruppe nach einer harmlosen Teilnahme an einer Halloween-Book-Party von Jasmins knallharter Verlegerin und dann kam eines zum anderen. Wir haben nun die 'Best Of' Beiträge aus den 100 Tagen gefiltert und für euch eine Hör-Challenge daraus gemacht. Und wir sind gespannt, wohin das noch alles führt... "Wer so tut, als bringe er die Menschen zum Nachdenken, den lieben sie. Wer sie wirklich zum Nachdenken bringt, den hassen sie." Aldous Huxley https://ctgjez.podcaster.de/cal_cast/die-52-wochen-netzwerkchallenge/ Treasure Island for Networkers! Spass am Netzwerken vermitteln! Darum geht es uns. Netzwerke werden inter- und transdisziplinär betrachtet, analysiert, bearbeitet, besprochen und geschaffen. Mit dem NetNuggets-Podcast wollen wir dieser Vielfalt gerecht werden, indem wir unterschiedliche Methoden, Formen und Beiträge innerhalb unserer Folgen wählen. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei stets das Thema „Netzwerke“, die Auseinandersetzung erfolgt bewusst und gewollt aus verschiedenen Perspektiven, auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen und zu diversen Aspekten. Dabei gehen wir erforschend und diskursiv vor, schließlich sollen sich die NetNuggets weiterentwickeln, ganz im Sinne einer Schatzsuche nach Goldstücken. Wir erstellen so eine akustische Collage, die sich an jeden und jede richtet, die und der sich mit Aspekten von sozialen Netzwerken, deren Auf- und Ausbau sowie Analyse beschäftigen will bzw. an diesen interessiert ist. Die Folgen wechseln daher zwischen den Formaten Interviews, Blogbeiträgen und Methoden gehören. Also Schaufel und Sieb gepackt, oder in unserem Fall, Mikro und Garageband gerichtet und ab zur Nuggetssuche! Wir sind: Jasmin Döhling-Wölm. Ich bin Pädagogin und Strategie- und Netzwerkberaterin seit 1997 heute bei dem Consultinginstitut karrierekunst in Bremen. Ich habe unter anderem das Coachingtool NetQuest ® entwickelt, mit dem zum Beispiel persönliche Karrierenetzwerke ausgelotet und nutzbar gemacht werden können. Ich wirke zudem als Autorin, Keynote-Speaker und Netzwerkbotschafterin, indem ich mich mit gezielter Öffentlichkeitsarbeit für strategische Netzwerkkompetenz und Empowerment für weibliche Forschende und Lehrende einsetze. Mein Ziel mit den NetNuggets: Noch mehr Menschen die Möglichkeit zu geben, persönliche Netzwerke aktiv zu nutzen und Strukturen zivilcouragiert weiterzuentwickeln. Und darüberhinaus mit Christina die Freude am Netzwerken zu transportieren. Christina Plath: Ich bin promovierte Psychologin, Wissenschaftlerin, systemische Supervisorin und Referentin für Gleichstellung und wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin in der Zentralen Einrichtung Gleichstellung & Diversität (ZEGD) der Universität Vechta. Dort bin ich u.a. für den Transfer zwischen Forschung und Praxis zu Chancengerechtigkeit und Gleichstellung sowie für die Förderung des wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchses und damit zusammenhängenden Aspekten der Chancengerechtigkeit verantwortlich. Beruflich wie privat sind mir der Einsatz gegen unterschiedliche Formen von Diskriminierung, die chancengerechte Förderung sowie Sichtbarkeit insbesondere für den wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchs sowie das Engagement für gerechtere und kritisch-reflektiere gesellschaftliche Bedingungen und Strukturen zentrale Anliegen.

For this episode of BERGCAST, we were joined by veteran novelist and screenwriter Stephen Gallagher, who chatted with us about the trajectory of his career, and the influence of Nigel Kneale on his work. In a wide-ranging conversation, we talked about how a false memory of Quatermass and the Pit haunted Stephen for years, how Hollywood treats writer-creators, what Emma Peel and Bernard Quatermass would look like as a team, and whether more screenplays should be written using the Marvel Method.

Part James Bond, part Wonder Woman, The Avengers epitomized Sixties British Cool on the small screen. The infrastructure for TV broadcasting was slow to be adopted in South Africa, but they had this terrific version of The Avengers from Springbok Radio. The Avengers burst in the door of spy and super-hero adventure drama on South African radio in 1971, starring Donald Monat as John Steed, and Diane Appleby as the wonderful Emma Peel. It was based on the fine TV series, which was very popular from the start in the UK, and is an excellent example of radio's adaptation of the television medium...as it had done with movies all along.Part pop art, part super hero, and part adventure serial... This radio show has all of the excitement and intelligence of the original television hit. Donald Monat has said, "I guess I was aiming to interpret the script in the spirit of the TV series, but in my own way - as my voice is quite different to Patrick's." Patrick McNee played Steed on the original television show, and the radio format, as national TV wasn't available in South Africa until '76, was the way it was popularized there. It was produced as usually six fifteen-minute serial episodes (with space for commercials), very unlike the hour TV show with the entire adventure. The "cliff hanging" segments keep the action moving and always leading up to a thrill to be continued. The quality of production sounds great. The radio stars even caught the fever and appeared to sign autographs as Steed and Peel to promote the show! Exactly as the television show did, it features outlandish, quirky villains, mad scientists, secret organizations and off-the-wall situations. Each adventure presents the Avengers with a Gordian knot of plot twists that they almost always manage to fray with aplomb. (Part James Bond, part Wonder Woman...why not?) A quick scan of the stories give the flavor: "From Venus with Love" is a fine example, featuring a very odd organization with a hidden agenda. Another excellent adventure is "Super Secret Cypher Snatch" the title alone titillates! "Not to be Sneezed At..." are the Avengers. Such madcap multi-parted adventures with two perfectly adept and adroit Avengers is a great radio example of why the pictures in the mind are the most exciting. As for the lovely Emma Peel, you may substitute the television vision of Diana Rigg if you desire.
Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman and this installment marks my 69th episode of "VideoFuzzy," reporting the progress I've made in cataloging more than 2,900 VHS transfers and digital recordings. In this installment, titled "Belligerent Optimism," comments on "Grey's Anatomy" segue into overarching themes, and in milestone news, as of this episode I've cataloged Disc 1000 in my Classic Collection! I posted a "throwback Thursday" pic on my VideoFuzzy Facebook page of me and that disc from when I first burned it in April 2009 to when I finally cataloged it last month. Check it out! In Corrections, the release date on the next James Bond, "No Time to Die," has been pushed to next year sometime. Also, I admit to cultural appropriation at times in this production, slipping into voice and characters in my podcast, impressions and other instances. I try to limit the inappropriateness of these instances, but I am aware of them, and if something sounds wrong, please contact me. I'm always trying to do better. In Old Business, I wanted to highlight and celebrate other aspects of comedian Sarah Silverman's work, and wish her a happy 50th in December. In my Friday Night Feature, I find a strong episode of "Grey's Anatomy" on disc 976, centered on a death row inmate who is expressing contrition and a wish that his organs, scheduled for termination at the hand of the state, save a young boy in need of a liver transplant. I pulled up a past episode for some background on the story arcs this fifth-season episode, "Stairway to Heaven," resolves, closing on a stark realization for Izzy Stevens in hallucinating her late boyfriend Denny Duquette. In cross connections, I am struck by how the realities of cancer have touched, darkened, textured and destroyed lives of patients, survivors, friends and families throughout human history. My show title is from an interview by late Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who succumbed to cancer recently. I noted several storylines I'd traced in discs from this set like "Grey's Anatomy," "Nip/Tuck" and "Battlestar Galactica" and other shows in my collection, together with such high-profile losses of Ginsburg, Gwen Ifill, Richard Hatch, Eddie Van Halen and Diana Rigg. In more conventional cross connections, I look at Eric Stolz in "Grey's Anatomy," Dina Meyer in "Nip/Tuck," Gena Rowlands and Marc Vann in "Monk," Andy Richter in "Bones," Danny Strong in "Leverage," Maggie Siff in ABC's "Life on Mars" reboot, Mira Sorvino and Omar Sharif in NBC miniseries "The Last Templar," Tom Irwin in "24" and "LOST," and oh WOW there were just a ton of cross-connections in the office dramedy "Trust Me," including Eric McCormick, Tom Cavanaugh, Tim Russ, Jason O'Mara, Adam Scott, Monica Potter, Griffon Dunn and Rhea Seehorn. I close out by tracing a Golden Thread on Chase Kim, appearing in my recording of "Leverage" on disc 1000. In my classic VHS-to-DVD collection, comments on an episode of "Fringe" open onto a Fond Reflection on the recent passing of Diana Rigg. On a related note, a fan posted this video celebrating the vivacious Mrs. Emma Peel. Also, I've archived a recording from the inauguration of Barack Obama across four discs, with comments on the season 4 finale of "The West Wing," "Battlestar Galactica," "Nip/Tuck" and "South Park," Fox Movie Channel's presentation of "Looking for Richard," and the Turner Classic Movies presentation of "Annie Hall." In my Current direct-to-DVD recordings, comments on "Fargo," "Archer," Syfy's presentation of "Dead Still," IFC's presentation of "Eyes Wide Shut" and the Sundance presentation of "The Green Mile." Plus I trace the rather eye-popping body of work by actor Steven Tobolowsky. Finally, I have updated my Facebook and podcast page to include a "top ten" episode guide for people looking for a quick read-in on this blog and podcast effort. Enjoy!
Ariel and Zoya discuss two legendary women who died a week apart - Dame Diana Rigg and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, both of whom could be called feminist icons, but neither of whom fully embraced the title when advocating for pay equity or gender equality. Dame Diana tackled gender stereotypes in her roles from Emma Peel in The Avengers to Lady Olenna on Game of Thrones, while the Notorious RBG tackled those same stereotypes in court. Ariel and Zoya discuss these great women and how they have shaped understanding of gender equality in Western culture.Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/omnibusride)
It is a somewhat different Comic Book Bears Podcast this time around as there is isn't a hell of a lot of actual comic book talk but there is a hell of a lot of comic book related talk. Listen in as Bill, Steve and Bryan talk about the TV versions of The Boys and Lucifer, I Am Thinking of Ending Things, The League of Regrettable Sidekicks, Stuck Rubber Baby, Toni Tennille (!), ComiXology's free Black Panther books, many things Dune and offer a fond farewell to Diana Rigg with a discussion about how Emma Peel influenced comics.
We remember Diana Rigg, the British actress who defined the high point of the classic British television series THE AVENGERS as Emma Peel. LISTEN IN....

Que Diana Rigg, qui incarna le personnage d'Emma Peel dans le feuilleton Chapeau melon et bottes de cuir, ait pu se sentir « rabaissée, parce que j'étais tellement bien plus que cette simple image de femme sexy », voilà qui m'attriste, plus encore peut-être que sa mort, regrettable mais hélas inévitable. … Continue readingBottes de cuir Cet article Bottes de cuir est apparu en premier sur Improvisations.

Diana Rigg has died aged 82. Her breakthrough role was as Mrs Emma Peel in The Avengers, going on to have a distinguished career across film, theatre and television with roles including as a Bond Girl in Her Majesty's Secret Service, Lady Macbeth at the National Theatre and Olenna Tyrell in Game of Thrones. Charles Dance remembers the actress alongside Mark Gatiss who wrote an episode of Doctor Who for Diana especially. On the line from Beijing, Chinese pianist Lang Lang discusses his new recordings of Bach’s Goldberg Variations, the culmination of a 20-year musical journey for the musician. One version was recorded in the studio, the other in the Thomaskirche in Leipzig, Germany, where Bach worked and is buried.

Steve Hansgen has such an important story to tell that we couldn't limit it to one episode! On this deep dive into his work we revisit Minor Threat, as well as get into topics like his time in Government Issue, Second Wind, Emma Peel, and Sleep Of Reason. We also talk addiction, family, the nature of the scene and just what he's learned from all this. This is one of my personal favorite interviews. Enjoy!
Heute geht's um Intimität und Distance, um die Erosion der Diskussionsfähigkeit und um die Untiefen der Obertöne. Es treten auf: Oscar Wilde, Georg Schramm, Jack Sparrow, Arthur Schopenhauer, Emma Peel, Helge Schneider, die Wunderkinder Adrian Leverkühn und Jacob Collier, und die wunderlichen rotlaternigen Schlumpfen und blaue Schlümpfe.

Here we are, the final installment of this series of Sidetracks: Metalshop Part 3. Did we talk more about Steve Slaten? Damn right we did! Did he play Emma Peel by The Allies? Probably not. Mike, as usual, is getting it mixed up with something else. In this episode we talk about a band Scott's apparently obsessed with: Blotto. Who were they? No one knows. Well, we clearly don't at any rate. He talks about a song he remembers (is that possible?). We also talk about Perennial, a local band only some recall. Also discussed is whether or not the 90s local bands listened to Metalshop, let alone metal. Further on the docket is Deep Purple. Remember when they got back together in the 80s? We do and talk about the reunion and album as well as their amazing career of great songs and revolving band members. There's also talk about our friends from Confused?!'s previous metal bands and the amazing names they had in said bands. It's all here: metal, metal and metal. The Pacific Northwest and its relationship with metal is a subject (it really is). Give the horns and crank out this loud (?) podcast of metal!

Charlotte Rampling, like Diana Rigg and many others of her generation, began her career as a 60's fashion model. After bit parts in such well remembered films as A Hard Days Night and The Knack and How to Get It, she stepped into a major role in the seminal Swinging London kitchen sink drama Georgy Girl, which got her noticed and brought over to Italy where she showed up in two WWII related epics that made her famous (and perhaps unintentionally helped kick off a certain infamous and short lived exploitation subgenre in Italy, France and the US): Visconti's The Damned and Liliana Cavani's The Night Porter. Making minor waves and memorable if brief appearances in everything from existential counterculture opuses like Vanishing Point and much feted dramedies like Woody Allen's Stardust Memories to neo-Noirs like Farewell My Lovely and Angel Heart and cheesefests like Zardoz and Orca, tonight we celebrate the cool yet sexually charged Emma Peel-style appeal of the lovely Charlotte Rampling, only here on Weird Scenes!

Explicit Content: Authorized Eyes OnlyAgent Codenames: Old Dude; Diabolu FrankAssignment: Father & Son Spy-Fi PodcastMission: An overview of the 1961-1969 British television series The Avengers starring Patrick Macnee as the dapper bowler’d spy John Steed and his various (mostly female) partners with an emphasis on Honor Blackman’s Cathy Gale (who we must never call by character name in the episode) and Emma Peel (unnamed actress.) While the episode is ostensibly centered on the second episode of the third series, “The Undertakers,” shake any pursuers through lengthy tangents on Beatles movies, Dr. Who, lowbrow sex comedies (“The Yakety Sax” maneuver) and long forgotten children’s daytime shows that cannot be located even by Google.See Also:WordPressrolledspinepodcasts@gmail.com@rolledspineFacebook
Today’s topic for our super-secret counter-intelligent Spy podcast is The Avengers! No, not that Avengers, the serialized British television show The Avengers, which ran from 1961 to 1969. The Avengers, a kind of satirical, stylized drama, played on the more lighthearted aspects of the Cold War, the space race and the Youthquake. In terms of tone, The Avengers is more Dr. Who than James Bond. The show follows the adventures of John Steed, a British spy, who works for a shadowy organization run by Mother and Father. Throughout the show he is partnered with, at first a forgettable male doctor, and then several far-more-competent, female super-spies, of whom Emma Peel is likely the most famous. The fashion of the era, was an important part of the style and look of the show and many mod designers, such as Pierre Cardin, lent their skills or design to the costuming. While it might be easy to assume that the Avengers only made use of fashion for Cathy Gale, Emma Peel or Tara King, who exemplified different parts of that swinging Mod style, the character of John Steed represents an important part of 1960s fashion, the rise of the Edward Dandy. We’re gonna talk about it all today, or almost all of it, or maybe only a few seasons of it, but we’re definitely going to talk about it a lot.

@TinDogPodcast reviews @Bigfinish #TheAvengers #TooManyTargets - Its A wonderful bit of nostalgia for a superb show. This is the 5 Doctors of Avengers Law. Not to be missed This title was released in September 2018. It will be exclusively available to buy from the BF website until October 31st 2018, and on general sale after this date. Two agents are dead, and their murderers sound worryingly familiar. A killer gorilla is on the loose, a deadly disease is ravaging a distant country and an eminent doctor has been kidnapped. It's all pretty much business as usual. But when John Steed is called in by his old boss and given an appalling task to complete, at the same time as Tara is given one that's even worse, it becomes clear that the myriad threads of a terrifying scheme are drawing together. The fate of the world hangs in the balance. Steed won't be able to handle this case alone. The Avengers are needed. All of them. Written By: John Peel and Dave Rogers, adapted by John Dorney Directed By: Ken Bentley Cast Julian Wadham (John Steed), Olivia Poulet (Emma Peel), Anthony Howell (Dr David Keel), Lucy Briggs-Owen (Carol Wilson), Beth Chalmers (Cathy Gale), Emily Woodward (Tara King), Christopher Benjamin (Mother), Hugh Fraser (Dr Cowles), Robert Portal (Armstrong), Dan Starkey (Wallace / Charles / Brodny), Leighton Pugh (Hunter / Lipp / Marty), Glen McCready (Alfie / Charlie).

El mundo del cine de espionaje ha reservado un lugar indigno para la mujer, desde el recurso de convertirlas en damas en peligro hasta comparsas del malo de turno - con la excepción de Emma Peel - no hemos tenido grandes espías femeninas. Hasta que llegó Lorraine y su look a lo Blondie, acción, violencia, buena música y actuaciones realmente logradas. Oigan el programa y vayan a ver la película. (El Langoy 115)
Episode 7.8: Invitation to a Swindig In which Mike Royce links CGI to a diminishing cinema experience, wonders if the ‘superhero squeeze’ might claim Valerian as its next victim, and is never really in the mood for being ‘Zimmered’. Martin Unsworth pleads the case for more fantasy airplanes, drifts slightly into the musical mainstream, and pays yet another visit to a celebrity grave. STARBURST Magazine gets a bogeymen boost, Doctor Who goes back to the late seventies for its newest release, The Simpsons prepare to hit cinemas with a comeback that no-one asked for, and Planet Earth shudders as Emma Peel drops the C-Bomb.

This week's recommendation comes from @VideoNegative podcast – who eschewed the mean-spirited and plain nasty rubbish film for the kind that tries hard but is nevertheless the equivalent of the dog with one leg shorter than the rest, hobbling urgently away from its own mess. Well played, we say, Video Negative. Well played. Featuring: a story maze, the wrong workmate, an original idea, signer's regret, a grabby Bond and an evil Emma Peel we may or may not have explained.
On this episode of ITG's ABCs (which is short for Anthology & Back-up Comics Stories), I'll be taking a look at the 6-part Phantom Lady serial from Action Comics Weekly #s 636-641! This series introduced a new legacy hero to the DCU, as recent college grad Dee Tyler attempts to fill the singular one-piece of Golden Age great, Sandra Knight! I think Dee showed some potential, and writer Len Strazewski packed this series with ideas that I think could have supported an ongoing series, had the public demanded it. Still, we're left with what I think is one of the more enjoyable Action Comics Weekly features, so please have a listen to my recap!Download this episode HERE!Scroll down to see images from these issues, and please be sure to check out previous episodes of I'm the Gun on iTunes & Google Play!Also, I'd love to hear from you!

Episode 5: Ever wondered what happens Inside Parliament? Well dive in with Montague the Gargoyle to find all about it. In episode 5 Monty takes us to meet a MP, Emma Peel, as we find out what MP’s do!
Alan Dean Foster (author of over 100 novels of science fiction and fantasy and noted world traveler) is today's featured guest. Many of this interview's topics were made possible only because of Alan's longstanding enthusiasm for traveling to places tourists rarely go. He seeks the places where wildlife is still unspoiled; and where the ancient ways that predate writing still exist. He knows they are fading rapidly, and wants to see them before they are gone forever. Topics include: how cell phones are changing even the third world with amazing speed; primitive cultures accepting technology, and leapfrogging passed the intermediate technologies; the rise of ebooks overseas, as well as how traditional publishers may watch their income evaporate when people buy ebooks online directly from the authors, which would cut publishers out of the loop; how policing oceanic piracy is forcing the naval ships of nations which are normally enemies to cooperate, and how this may build relationships of respect: a precursor to trust. He also shares some personal anecdotes: about writing movie novelizations such as Aliens 1, 2 and 3--and why he didn't write number 4; how he met Diana Rigg (who played Emma Peel on The Avengers) as well as Julie Newmar (who played the original Catwoman on Batman); his trip with James Gurney (author of Dinotopia and illustrator for National Geographic) who joined him on travels through Malta, Tunisia, Morocco, Dakar and Gibraltar. He also described his intention to travel to the Western Indian Ocean, which is part of the area threatened by the pirate's that have been in the news so much lately for hijacking cruise ships and oil tankers and holding everyone aboard hostage, sometimes for many months. Hosted by Stephen Euin Cobb, this is the January 21, 2009 episode of The Future And You. [Running time: 64 minutes] While most of his novels involve worlds he has created himself, such as those in his Commonwealth series and Spellsinger series, and those in his various trilogies such as The Damned, The Taken and Icerigger, a portion of his time is spent writing novelizations of successful movies and TV shows. Examples include: the first three Aliens movies, The Chronicles of Riddick, Outland, Clash of the Titans, Starman, The Thing, Alien Nation, Transformers, The Last Starfighter, and the first Star Wars novelization, which he co-wrote with George Lucas. The quality and extent of this body of work won him the 2008 Grand Master award from the International Association of Media Tie-In Writers.

Diana Rigg wird geboren, bekannt als Mrs. Emma Peel.
Radio series Between 1971 and 1973 the TV series scripts were adapted for radio for broadcast in South Africa, which did not have television until 1976. The Tara King episodes had the character effectively renamed Emma Peel. Donald Monat played Steed, and Diane Appleby, Mrs Peel. The stories were adapted into between 5 and 7 episodes of approximately 15 minutes each (including adverts) and stripped across the week on the SABC. Currently 19 complete serials survive, all from original reel-to-reel off-air recordings, as well as three episodes of "Escape In Time", from a mixture of sources.
