    Diana Rigg / Emma Peel Has Passed

    I don't know if this level of work is ever going to be attainable again. Incredible talent that embodied an entire other element to British actors that very few have reached.

    Diana Rigg, the Tony and Emmy winner who splashed into the world of television with her commanding turn as intelligence agent Emma Peel on "The Avengers" in the 1960s and played Lady Olenna Tyrell on "Game of Thrones" decades later, has died, BBC News reported Thursday. She was 82.

    Iconic, and I always enjoyed her work. She's in at least three of my favorite films, and her run on The Avengers defined the show. I saw her most recently on Victoria (PBS). I'll miss her, RIP Ms. Rigg.

      Without looking things up, I'm guessing "Her Majesty's Secret Service" is one of those...

        Yes! We have two threads on her, she's that good. OHMSS is one of my favorite Bond films and easily my favorite without Connery.
