    Doesn't take much to make an old man happy.

    Watching the "Victoria" series on PBS. suddenly realize a character introduced last week is none other than Emma Peel (Diane Riggs). Don't know why but it made me happy.

    Do you mean the character on the new program was Emma Peel, err strike that.

    Never mind, looking it up reveals Dame Diana Rigg is the Duchess of Buccleuch where ever that is.

    Yes, watching Emma Peel again would make me happy. Patrick McNee was also pretty good.

    I thought Emma Peel was the most attractive woman ever. Oddly, Diana Rigg did nothing for me. I guess she is a good actress.
