THE AVENGERS



  •  The TV show aired its first episode on the 7th January 1961 after the first episode the TV show manged to last 8 years. It was moved from ITV to ABC also known as Thames TV.
  •  The TV show now looks extremely dated they used lots of new technology at the time but now looks unrealistic for example green screens.
  • It got very good reviews online today some of the reviews are 8.4/10
  •  The comedic part of the show is extremely different to how they are now as it isn't as obvious.
  • The language and difference in society is very different to how it is now for example someone made a comment relating to feminism like it was weird, but now its extremely normal to talk about and to be around.
  • the story line can sometimes be very similar to some of the crime dramas today.
  • The cast was full of some very popular actors it had Patrick Macnee and Diana Rigg.
