PAUL CHANDLER, THE SHY YETI, wishes you were here to hear him discuss humour in THE AVENGERS.First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on February 15th 2026.This week PAUL CHANDLER, THE SHY YETI himself, is back, although this week we're going to try and get away from the Antipodean content that his recent appearances on VISION ON SOUND have tended to concentrate on, and instead focus on a subject that is almost certainly more familiar to connoisseurs of British archive television: THE AVENGERS, that latterly most quirky of 1960s television drama series.Our idea was to talk about (and hopefully appreciate) the more humorous aspects of this particular show, showing its development and evolution away from its more urban thriller and kitchen sink dramatic roots in the early 1960s, to the urbane, witty, and charming version as seen during its final season in which PATRICK MACNEE's John Steed was paired with LINDA THORSON as Tara King, and PAUL picked out a particular episode that he considered to be one of the more broadly humorous ones for us both to watch.This was WISH YOU WERE HERE, episode twenty of series six, written by TONY WILLIAMSON, and directed by DON CHAFFEY, and, whilst what follows isn't exactly an episode guide-style examination of that show, it did provide us with an excellent prompt for a conversation about humour in TV drama series that includes references to other episodes of THE AVENGERS, THE NEW AVENGERS, DOCTOR WHO, and even CORONATION STREET, and I hope that you find the next hour as entertaining as it was for us to record it, even though PAUL wasn't in the most conducive of places (technically) on the day of recording.PLEASE NOTE - For Copyright reasons, musical content sometimes has to be removed for the podcast edition. All the spoken word content remains (mostly) as it was in the broadcast version. Hopefully this won't spoil your enjoyment of the show.

The Equalizer Season 1 Episode 20: No Conscience Aired on CBS: March 26, 1986 Directed by: Richard Compton Written by : Mark Frost Featuring: Laurie Metcalf, D.W. Moffett, Linda Thorson, Kelly Curtis, Madison Arnold, Mark Margolis Picture this: You're in an improv group asking for a situation and someone shouts "A ladies man who has 36 hours to give some bad guys some unknown thing a woman gave him." First you'd be like "uh, what?" which would be perfectly valid, there are things to pick apart right off the bat and many red flags that you shouldn't proceed. But if you do go for it, even if you're one of those What's My Line? guys, you would not approach what weird wild stuff happens in this season one episode of The Equalizer. We really want to say more but we don't want to spoil it and this podcasting platform might not be able to handle such craziness in a description field. @equalizerspod equalizerspodcast at gmail dot com
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.
