Publisher's Synopsis
The New Avengers is often forgotten or patronisingly treated by fans of the original 1960s cult television show, The Avengers. This short study of a selection of episodes from the two mini-seasons asks fans to think again. The New Avengers was both NEW and AVENGERS. It was part of a television institution but it was also capable of being dynamically fresh. Making It New? reassesses the wonderful world of Steed, Purdey and Gambit, from the fictitious island of St Dorca, via France to Canada where the show ended.
