Diana Rigg R.I.P.

Dame Diana Rigg has passed away age 82. She played Emma Peel in the 1960's TV Series " The Avengers " She was my teenage years heart throb, as she was for many young men at the time.

She was also a very versatile actor in the many roles she played. She will be missed.

R.I.P. Diana.

"The Avengers"? Another thing the Brits stole from us like The Office and Top Gear.

If there's a Brit around, keep everything locked up.

She was fantastic in GOT. I think her and Peter Dinklage stole the show with their delivery of wit.

Ha ha.

There's some here who'll believe you and will start repeating it every time one of those hilarious UK v US threads pop up.

You've got to admit your take on Shameless was embarrassing.

Diana Rigg was the epitome of 60's style and cool, seemed quite grounded and had a great sense of humour.
And was obviously a great actress.

I hope so, it's time for the Revolution Redux.

Unwatchable.

Someone mentioned it earlier as well, I loved her in GoT.

And married James Bond of course.

Loved her as Miss Peel, may she Rest In Peace.

totally agee a rea sexy lady

Awww. She gave me a lasting love of form-fitting faux leather and English accents.

But on a side note, it's sobering when one's triggers for budding sexuality die of old age.

Now I am sad...

Thanks
