Segunda piel (2000)

Emma Peel (The Avengers) Megaset
If you are a fan of the Avengers then this is for you. Part of the series is in black and white, and part in colour as it was. Easy to play and easy to watch.

Emma Peel and John Steed are government agents who tackle a variety of Mastermind type criminals, who have both political and financial gains to make. Steed is a relatively clever "gentleman" who knows all about wine etc. Mrs Peel on the other hand tends to be the one doing much of the fighting and is far the more intellectually clever of the team.

If you are a UK customer check that you have a multi region DVD player, as it is Region 1 (USA).

I did have a problem with the set; 1 received 2 of the 67-5 series and no 67-6 series. Amazon swiftly sorted the problem and sent me a new one.

Schirm; Charme und Melone
The Avengers were and still are very popular in germany, too and I am glad to get hold of all the episodes. I personally would have liked the DVDs subtitled since english is not my native language and I do not get all the lines of the witty conversations. What I also object is that the original film material is often quite unclean, spots and scratches should have been removed digitally before putting the episodes on DVD. That is my only objection, I am really glad to have these TV treasures on DVD.

Brings back fond memories
This set brings back fond memories of watching The Avengers with the rain beating down outside during my childhood in London. For those of you who like The Prisoner (McGoohan) for the surreal situations, coupled with humor and early James Bond type plots on a smaller scale, don't miss this set!
