The Avengers was a unique, genre-defying television series which blurred the traditional boundaries between Ôlight entertainmentÕ and disturbing drama. It was a product of the cons tantly-evolving 1960s yet retains a timeless charm. At the crossroads between the Cathy Gale-era stricture of video tape and the glossy, surreal, comic-strip world of Ôglorious TechnicolorÕ, the monochrome filmed Emma Peel season represents the artistic pinnacle of a show which was exported around the world and remains the only British television drama to be networked at ÔprimetimeÕ in the USA. Bright Horizons draws on the knowledge of a broad range of experts and fans of The Avengers Ð including scriptwriter Roger Marshall Ð offering critical explorations of all twenty-six Ômini-filmsÕ which made up Season 4, the collective peak of an extraordinary television series.
