Doctor Who Vs. The Avengers @ 65: Series 1

January 1961 saw the debut of ITV's cult

fantasy drama. Patrick Macnee (1922-

2015) and Ian Hendry (1931-1984) port-

rayed spy John Steed and Dr. David Keel.

Beginning with the murder of Keel's

fiance Peggy, and his sworn intent to

avenge her death, the initial run com-

prised twenty-six instalments.

Only two complete stories exist in the

archives, whilst just the final act of the

 opening episode remain intact.

After 161 episodes, spanning six series,

The Avengers finished in 1969 and was

shown in ninety countries.

The programme spawned the television

sequel, The New Avengers (1976-77), a

British stage production (1971), the South

African radio series (1971-73), a cinema version (1998), and Big Finish's full

cast audio version (2014 to present).

The TV executive credited with conceiving Doctor Who in 1963, Sydney

Newman (1917-1997) also created The Avengers for ABC (later Thames),

and he assembled a team of writers that included Dennis Spooner, John

Lucarotti, Bill Strutton, and Peter Ling. The first season of The Avengers

Doctor Who Vs. The New Avengers, Series 1 [Part 2]

In 1969, Dennis Spooner (1932

-1986) said that The Avengers had

gone as far as it could in terms of

parody.

Producer Brian Clemens therefore

aimed for espionage-based narr-

atives for the sequel series - the

 first, thirteen-part season also

included sci-fi themes.

The titular Avengers were now a

triumvirate, but John Steed (again

portrayed by Patrick Macnee) now

acted more like the Mother figure

from the parent show.
