I wasn’t on the edge of my seat waiting for this, but I think it’s pretty baffling that they’d wait till the afternoon/evening of the last day of the month to announce a delay.

Audio adaptations of all the 60's novels would be cool.

I'm a Tara King man myself and it's just a cracking yarn and feels like the five doctors meets avengers.
Brilliant stuff

Downloaded this last night. Haven't had a chance to listen to it yet apart from the interviews and the wonderful tag scene at the end, which was a nice little surprise. Sounds as though it was great fun to make. Will listen fully over the weekend.

Great fun, but boy is Emily Woodward miscast as Tara, her voice and portrayal of the character was a real down point for me. Bowlers tipped to Beth Charmers as Cathy Gale though, brilliant bit of casting.

Loved, loved, loved it. More please. Indeed. One thing that concerns me, there is only one original novel to feature Cathy Gale, and a few comic strips, I'd hate that to restrict Beth Charmers reprising her role in future releases. If they stick to just books and comics to adapt then Cathy's pretty much stuffed. Sadly Emily Woodward's performance wouldn't inspire me to buy Tara King releases.

That was excellent and the tone is set from the moment Steed uses the phrase 'killer gorilla' and then stops to finish his cup of tea before answering Charles' urgent summons. Nothing's so urgent that a chap can't finish his tea first! I liked the way that, 'Five Doctors' style, the plot divides the various Avengers then pairs them up, gives them separate journeys and adventures and finally draws them all together for the big showdown with the villains.
Everyone gets their moment and the chance to show their particular expertise - medicine, anthropology, espionage, electronics, etc. Personally I especially enjoy the Steed and Mrs. Peel stories so I was very pleased to see them teamed up again here and right on tone for their era, great scenes in the creepy crypt with the rocket-powered angels and I loved Steed's idea of essentials for a riverside picnic - case of Champagne, Fortnum & Mason's hamper, rocket launcher... I thought all the acting was first-class and perfect for the period - great to hear Christopher Benjamin and Hugh Fraser, and Beth Chalmers' voice for Cathy Gale was so good I could easily imagine Honor Blackman back in action. The richly detailed Sixties sound design was spot-on (BF do this so well, as in the classic CM sets) and the pacing and direction as authentic-sounding as the rest. I've not read the novel so I don't know how much the story was changed (if at all) in the adaptation, but to me it all felt exactly right. And even two unexpected 'guest appearances' at the end - they hardly made sense in context of the story, but why not? - we were promised ALL The Avengers, weren't we!
Da-Da-Da-Dahhhh!
