RIP Diana Rigg, aka Emma Peel.

Diana Rigg, who played Emma Peel on The Avengers, (the real Avengers, not the silly superhero movie of the same name), died today. 

I grew up watching The Avengers on TV and the Emma Peel character made quite an impression on me as a young boy.  She was John Steed's partner, drove a very cool Lotus Elan, often wore leather jumpsuits, and kicked bad guy ass whenever needed. And she was kinda easy on the eyes too.   She's the reason that I named my Mini, Emma.

She was sexy before I even knew what sex was for.
RIP.

I was discussing her passing with my brother.

He sent me this photo.  I think I owe him now.
