My wife said do you want to go to the pictures and see the avengers after 20 minutes I realise it was a crap american film not the real avengers I fee I was conned rule Britannia
This scene is an absolute heartbreaking but not for me only. It was for Patrick Mcnee and Diana Rigg too who, just after this scene, cried each on their own . The end of a wonderful chemistry.
@@JesusMartinez-qk9hr They did meet again, Diana Rigg did a sitcom called "Diana" in the early 70s, Macnee was a guest star in one of the episodes. Search "Diana Rigg Patrick Macnee - Diana Show" on youtube, the quality of the video isnt great but its just a treat to see them reunited.
02:26 That final turn and look as she and Mr. Peel drives away, took on a whole different meaning today as our Mrs Peel, Diana Rigg has left us. Rest in Peace Mrs. Peel. I think there are a whole lot of men who still hold the candle of that youthful crush.
iflyTony Loved her in "The Avengers." Also loved her in the movie "In this House of Brede." It catered to more of a female audience, but she was lovely in it. I believe it's still up on TH-cam.
I can't think of what to see at this time beyond that Diana Riggs passing sure makes me think about my personal mortality. Diana Rigg stood with Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly as far as screen elegance. I can offer no greater compliment.
Goodbye Emma and thank you. Thank you for lighting up my childhood. Thank you for staying forever lovely. You will always be one of the great beacons of that sixties era, Making the decade fun and stylish. And your magic never stopped, never went away, never faded. The story may be done, but the love will never be.
Yes I recall seeing this episode when I was only nine years old when the Avengers TV series was still premiering back in 1968 and I was kind of distraught to see Diana Rigg leave the series. However I still enjoyed the series with Linda Thorson as Tara King after all she did a good job in the series as Steeds Hench woman.
The moment I saw the thumbnail for this clip I remembered vividly the line from Emma peel about him liking his tea stirred anti clockwise even though I have not seen this episode for more than 50 years. It is amazing how small moments can stay in the mind.
Patrick and Diana had a once in a lifetime chemistry. You cannot "act" or "fake" the sexual chemistry these two had. They loved each other in real life and you can take that how you want. Nobody will be able to successfully reboot this series because nobody can recreate Patrick and Diana.
You absolutely got that right. The chemistry between these two great actors could never be duplicated. That is why I boycotted the reboot movie. On the other hand Linda Thorson was tolerable with the help of Patrick MacNee. I tried watching the earlier Avengers and they were kind of boring.
Almost as good as William Powell and Myrna Loy, but not even in the same orbit as Bogart and Bacall or Lucy and Desi . . . but they were good together, not just the best.
Notice how Macnee's cheek trembles slightly as she's saying goodbye to him. And it's the only time he ever called her "Emma" (at least as his real self).
I had not noticed this before, and now seeing your comment, yes. You do not see Mr Peel clearly, but I believe the point is he was meant to be a spitting image of Steed with all that implied.
I remember a scene in the black and white episodes where this guy is holding her at gunpoint, he unzips one of the zippers of black leather outfit and reaches in, like he's feeling her breast. That was a seminal moment in my young sexual awakening. Really daring for tv at that time, I think the censors missed it. I've never forgotten it.
There is no words to describe Miss Emma Peel that lady was so classy and not only that she was an icon during the TV's show The Avengers and John steed both Legends forever
God bless, always John Steeds girl forever, rest in peace, goodbye "Emma". "Always keep your bowler on in times of stress and watch out for diabolical masterminds."
Geez....I remember watching this episode on a Friday night, I was 11 years old. I knew that was the last episode with Mrs Peel. I still remember the lump in my throat as I had to work hard not to cry, I had that big a crush on her.
I was 8 or 9. The other boys had cartoon superheroes from fictional planets. I had Emma Peel and she was real and could vanquish an adversary with a single judo chop, then she'd whip her head and her hair would fall perfectly back in place. I refuse to watch _On Her Majesty's Secret Service_ to this day because I don't want to see "Mrs. Peel" get killed.
I was 10 when the last episode with Emma Peel aired...like many, I was in love with her & to see that departure, it felt like the end of a real relationship. I truly felt so heartbroken for awhile...What a woman she was. When I saw this clip recently, I relived the whole experience again. Can't believe she made such a great impression!!!
The Avengers series ran for years and Emma Peel was only in it for 2 (1965-67) but she and Steed are the only characters I remember. They were great friends in real life too. He was 45 and Rigg was 29 when this last episode was shot.
Check out the Cathy Gale episodes with Honor Blackman. They are much grittier than the Emma era, but Mrs. Gale was a badass before Emma was a badass. I love them both.
@@chrisnorton4382 Nice try, but I know for a fact it was Patrick Macnee. Do your homework before getting onto the internet and making up some ridiculous lie to garner a bit of attention for yourself.
I wish someone would release a Blu-Ray boxed set. I have a few DVD's but not the entire series. What fun watching this as a teen in the 60's. Love it even more today. And it saddens me to learn Dame Rigg has passed away.
Chris Norton thanks for the lead, it’s been awhile since I last looked. Hopefully this means more are coming. I just ordered them. Hopefully they are better then the DVD versions I already own. Thanks again.
Emma Peel was my first crush, and after all these years The Avengers is still my favorite tv show. I have two complete DVD sets of The Avengers with Mrs. Peel.
Loved the Avengers from its origins of live black and white with Honor Blackman until this last scene with Emma I just saw an interview with him much later. He was full of praise for her but regretted the way she was treated by then male producers
This is the first time I've seen this in nearly 50 years (and the first time I've ever seen it in colour). I'm amazed at how many details of this scene I remembered, considering I was only 13 at the time. I guess it's because I had a huge crush on Diana Rigg (there have never been a sexier pair of eyes on TV). Ah memories! I feel sorry for Linda Thorson -- how does anyone follow up Diana Rigg?
Diana Rigg was perfect for the role. The show failed in America when she left. But, the show went on with Linda Thorson and was a hit in some places. I find these episodes boring but, there's no accounting for taste sometimes.
I tell ya, between Emma Peel, Sarah Jane, and a few others, some of those British women have had me wrapped around their little fingers for a very long time now. It's really difficult seeing them get old and leave this world. Probably more so than seeing myself get old. Rest in peace, ladies... you are and always will be missed.
"It's really difficult seeing them get old and leave this world. Probably more so than seeing myself get old". I've long felt this but this is the first time I've seen it expressed by someone else. I find it incredibly melancholic to watch the women I originally saw as young beauties get old and die, and it's more distressing than seeing the same thing happening to myself.
I rarely watch this episode. In reality, Di Rigg was already gone and this transitional installment was put in to explain the hand off to Tara. I have read where some people praise this final scene, and while I do appreciate what little emotional morsel fans got, I always felt it was woefully short of expressing their true bond. Anyway, her final look back says to me "I'll be with him but I'll be thinking about you." And thus launched a thousand fanfics. 😄
I remember watching that scene (late night re-runs in my country). They just re-ran with Diana Rigg Playing Emma. There can only be one and only. She was dynamite.
Lady Dame Diana Rigg , passed away today, she was and will always be an exquisite actress, a credit to her acting profession, a lady with style and class. My condolences to her family. Kevin Phoenix
Perfect screen pair about acting.....how many beautiful dresses she worked here...and what gorgeous vocal timbre(even if because she estudied diction too)
Emma Peel + Lotus Elan what more could any kid ever want. An iconic character who can live with best. Good-bye to Diana Rigg however the legacy of Emma Peel shines bright
Adiós Emma y gracias. Gracias por iluminar mi infancia, mi primer amor. Gracias por permanecer eternamente encantadora. Siempre serás la mayor referencia de los años 60, estilo y sofisticación . Y tu magia describió en tu salida de la serie lo gigante actriz que fue.Te recordaré como lo mejor de lo mejor en mi corazón y fantasía de mi niñez y adolescencia. Muchas gracias Emma. Muchas gracias Diana.
This scene is still one of the most painful. The end of an era. The last chapter of a great epic myth. They prepared us for this with the episode "The Forget-Me-Knot" - Almost like telling us: Wake up from the delicious dream!
I think they were involved romantically -- Emma thought she was a widow after all -- so that makes this scene especially poignant. A real relationship was ending. I really wonder just how long Emma stayed with Peter once the new wore off of his return. I mean, she had obviously moved on. By The New Avengers, she had changed her name and wasn't Mrs. Peel anymore. I like to think they got back together. ❤️
Uhh hello.... Why do you think Emma showed up at Steed's flat at 3:00am with booze in Dead Man's Treasure? It was a straight up booty call and that is a hill I will die on!!
cat 11 they were pretty close friends. Past interviews have stated that Diana didn’t trust anyone because they were exploiting her. Patrick was the only one who she trusted and considered a friend. It all went downhill for her on the show, when she learned that the cameraman was earning more than she was. Anyone else hear that story?
@@jenbranker4775 - the pay issue was with the black and white series. She negotiated a raise for the colour series. Blame her first agent for under-selling her! She was a stage actress (with the RSC) and her initial TV deal may have seemed good in comparison.
Sorry Marvel comics, but these will always be my Avengers.
My wife said do you want to go to the pictures and see the avengers after 20 minutes I realise it was a crap american film not the real avengers I fee I was conned rule Britannia
AMEN!!!
When people mention Avengers this is all I think of!
Yep mine too...
Yeah these are the real deal! No comparison with Marvel. Pure class
Rest in the most perfect peace, Dame Diana Rigg.
And many of the others who've left us over the years!
Watching this today on the day Diana Rigg died has left me with a few tears in my eyes. RIP Mrs Peel.
Reunited with Mr Steed.
The only time Steed called her “Emma”... .
Yes, he always called her Mrs. Peel.
This scene is an absolute heartbreaking but not for me only. It was for Patrick Mcnee and Diana Rigg too who, just after this scene, cried each on their own . The end of a wonderful chemistry.
How tender and unforgettable!!!!!!
I just have a doubt, did they meet again?
@@JesusMartinez-qk9hr They did meet again, Diana Rigg did a sitcom called "Diana" in the early 70s, Macnee was a guest star in one of the episodes. Search "Diana Rigg Patrick Macnee - Diana Show" on youtube, the quality of the video isnt great but its just a treat to see them reunited.
@@waltertaylor44 Thanks a lot for the information.
One of my favorite shows as a kid. I remember this episode.
No affection between her long lost husband..? 🤔. Linda was a perfect replacement.👍💜
02:26 That final turn and look as she and Mr. Peel drives away, took on a whole different meaning today as our Mrs Peel, Diana Rigg has left us. Rest in Peace Mrs. Peel. I think there are a whole lot of men who still hold the candle of that youthful crush.
you bet friend, sad day, that beautiful face
And women who admire you forever.

Loved her in "The Avengers." Also loved her in the movie "In this House of Brede."
It catered to more of a female audience, but she was lovely in it. I believe it's still up on TH-cam.
@@TheDarkDresser I actually loved "Mother Love" it was a BBC mini series about 30 years ago. INCREDIBLE performance by Dame Diana.
The only time in the series, I believe when he calls her "Emma" instead of "Mrs.Peel."
RIP Diana Rigg. You were so loved.
This scene never fails to make me sad...very sad. The only "cure" is to restart the series from the beginning.
Today is the real farewell for Emma. Goodbye Diana. Patrick is in heaven waiting for you
One cannot say Rest in Peace for Diana Rigg, as she truly was Emma Peel and Emma would never rest.
Saddest three minutes in the history of television.
Her face at 2.22 shows her feelings. Quite emotional. What a gift for all us fans.
What an amazing final scene. I can;t believe they wrote this as well as they did. And the actors nailed it. Like they usually did.
I can't think of what to see at this time beyond that Diana Riggs passing sure makes me think about my personal mortality. Diana Rigg stood with Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly as far as screen elegance. I can offer no greater compliment.
This is a very good start.
Agreed. Audrey Hepburn is my favorite movie actress, Diana Rigg, my favorite tv actress.
Goodbye Emma and thank you.
Thank you for lighting up my childhood.
Thank you for staying forever lovely.
You will always be one of the great beacons of that sixties era,
Making the decade fun and stylish.
And your magic never stopped, never went away, never faded.
The story may be done, but the love will never be.
Gigante relato. Felicitaciones, es exactamente lo que dice mi corazón ante su partida
Still the most painful scene in the whole series.
BILL MURRAY Agree

However I still enjoyed the series with Linda Thorson as Tara King after all she did a good job in the series as Steeds Hench woman.
His final words: "Emma...thanks". Alot of emotion in that. MacNee did that so well.

Patrick and Diana had a once in a lifetime chemistry. You cannot "act" or "fake" the sexual chemistry these two had. They loved each other in real life and you can take that how you want. Nobody will be able to successfully reboot this series because nobody can recreate Patrick and Diana.
You absolutely got that right. The chemistry between these two great actors could never be duplicated. That is why I boycotted the reboot movie. On the other hand Linda Thorson was tolerable with the help of Patrick MacNee. I tried watching the earlier Avengers and they were kind of boring.
Almost as good as William Powell and Myrna Loy, but not even in the same orbit as Bogart and Bacall or Lucy and Desi . . . but they were good together, not just the best.
R.I.P. Patrick and Diana. Steed and Emma together in the afterlife.😢
@@toga1022 Lucy/Desi Bogy/Bacall were married couples IRL. The fact that Patrick and Diana had equal chemistry says it all.
Diana was my favorite actress. I found no one to replace her. She was the best and most beautiful actress.
I remember when I watched this moment the first time how emotional it was. It's even more emotional today.
This scene is actually quite moving.
Aye.
Notice how Macnee's cheek trembles slightly as she's saying goodbye to him. And it's the only time he ever called her "Emma" (at least as his real self).
The program was never the same after Diana Left the Avengers..
I agree
This was the big problem. The nearest match was Purdey aka Joanna Lumey. Aside from that I totally agree.
@@Pauldjreadman yes Purdey was great
It sucked period that's why it ended after season 6. Without Diana Rigg forget about it.
@@Pauldjreadman oh fully agree. I didn't care for Gambit tho could have done without him.
This whole scene is a master piece! Yes Steed, she was into you😥 His face when he see's what her husband looks like and carries himself. Fantastic!
I had not noticed this before, and now seeing your comment, yes. You do not see Mr Peel clearly, but I believe the point is he was meant to be a spitting image of Steed with all that implied.
This is so perfect! Thank you! RIP Diana Rigg, my first female super-hero.💔
I just turned 60 and still have a teenage crush on Mrs Peel.
Beat you at 76

me too
And this 74 year old, too🥰
Get in line with the rest of us...

RIP Diana Rigg. Steed really does need you.
A sad day for TV, and especially 12-yr old boys. Nobody beat up bad guys like Mrs. Peel...
Well we got purdy in the 70s
@@dadagan8815 Before she turned into a lush 😛
Well, Tara was pretty good!💙
I remember that episode and teared up when Mrs Peel left.
One of the most heartwarming friendships on and off screen.
Absolutely heartbreaking.
Emma Peel stunningly beautiful
This was shocking. The bar was lifted to it's highest point and never gone any higher. The look on this face, says it all.
Mrs Peel and Steed, top Class
Still hard to watch.........!! Mrs Peel......Steed needs you.......!!!! RIP Beautiful Diana and Patrick.....
I remember watching this first time on tv. Even now it still brings a tear to my eye
Utterly heartbroken as a kid when she left the show!
Breathes there a man
with soul so dead
who never to himself hath said,
"Mrs. Peel, we're needed!"
There is no words to describe Miss Emma Peel that lady was so classy and not only that she was an icon during the TV's show The Avengers and John steed both Legends forever
Steed looks puzzled as "hubbie" opens car door for Mrs Peel. The bowler, the coat - the man looks strangely like Steed. A last mystery...
God bless, always John Steeds girl forever, rest in peace, goodbye "Emma".
"Always keep your bowler on in times of stress and watch out for diabolical masterminds."
R. I. P. Mrs emma peel. Will miss u loads. 40 yr old lad here who grew up watching u on avengers x
Such a beautiful woman in her youth. RIP Patrick and Diana!
The'll never be another Emma Peel, she was the one!
Like many, my kid crush will forever be on this beautiful, kickass lady!
As Mrs Peel walked out that door, the show died.
Can't believe there were some on social media who had never heard of this legend.

Steed and Mrs. Peel, together again, this time, for all eternity.

After Diana Rigg left the The Avengers, it was the beginning of the end. The episodes were great but Linda could not replace Emma Peel. 😢
Goodbye, Dame Diana! For all your other achievements you _were_ the sixties.
I wish someone would release a Blu-Ray boxed set. I have a few DVD's but not the entire series. What fun watching this as a teen in the 60's. Love it even more today. And it saddens me to learn Dame Rigg has passed away.

But, the show went on with Linda Thorson and was a hit in some places. I find these episodes boring but, there's no accounting for taste sometimes.
I remember I was very unfair to Linda’s Tara King. She wasn’t Diana Rigg. Wherever you are, Ms. Thorson. I apologize.
What a beautiful lady
I tell ya, between Emma Peel, Sarah Jane, and a few others, some of those British women have had me wrapped around their little fingers for a very long time now.
It's really difficult seeing them get old and leave this world. Probably more so than seeing myself get old.
Rest in peace, ladies... you are and always will be missed.
We don't realize how precious and fleeting life is until it's gone.
"It's really difficult seeing them get old and leave this world. Probably more so than seeing myself get old".

Class act both stead and Mrs peel
The original young boy crush. Rip diana
Never watched it again after this.
This is actually a pretty clever goodbye.
"No, they never gave in, but they *could* have!"
It satisfies on both levels.
Rigg was ambiguous about whether Steed and Emma were banging. Macnee said "Of course they were.".
There is a scene or two in the series that strongly imply they just slept together.
I think they were involved romantically -- Emma thought she was a widow after all -- so that makes this scene especially poignant. A real relationship was ending. I really wonder just how long Emma stayed with Peter once the new wore off of his return. I mean, she had obviously moved on.
