I also recall her from the TV series, "The Avengers". Never really recall seeing her in any of the later programs that you mentioned.

Of course, after listening to our kids and grandkids, I may be one of the only 1/2 dozen people on this planet who hasn't watched an episode of "Game of Thrones" haha

Mrs Peel was my favourite 'Avenger' too...

Ah, Mrs Peel. I think she did a Bond movie as well.

Put me on the list of those that have not seen an episode of Game of Thrones.
