I have always enjoyed The Avengers tv series, even from the early days (I'm old enough to have seen them first time around) but they are still as entertaining as ever, from one gentleman to another, Happy Birthday, if a tad late.

A very Happy Birthday Mr Macnee! Thank you so much for being such an inspirational person, a truly wonderful actor and for bringing so much happiness to so many people around the world through your performances.. Watching the Avengers as a French teenager contributed to my enduring love of England and I am now a 34 years-old British citizen! God bless you, always. |

You will not remember me but I was the RAF Policeman who was the liaison at RAF Northolt for the airfield scenes of House of Cards and Sleeper. Great privilege to work with you Sir, still very proud. Just shown House of Cards with all the teenage pop fans - remember how cold it was filming those scenes? |

As has been mentioned before here's wishing you ALL the very best for now and the future.
You will not remember but I met you many many years ago at Teddington Studios. I was just a very young boy then, but I walked into the studio reception and asked to see you (I'd traveled to London from Sunderland) and you took the trouble to see me - I could not believe it, and I will never forget it.
Once again many many thanks, and all the best for the future,
Bob. (Langley) |

Dear Sir Patrick,
It is with great pleasure and immense respect that i wish you a belated happy birthday, and many more of them.
It is such a shame that of todays actors, there are just so few that would alude to even a small fraction of your huge talent.
Thank you and good luck for all your future.

Hi Patrick
While visiting a coastal pub at Kilcunda Victoria, we spotted a photograph of you at the bar surrounded by locals, in full Steed mode. The accompanying note suggested the photo was taken in the 1960s. Can you recall if you were on a theatrical tour at the time? The photograph is as surreal as any set from The Avengers!Thanks and regards
Answer:
It would be great to see a copy of the photo! |

As a young man, I watched The Avengers religiously. Your style in the role of John Steed, with the well cast Diana Rigg, made the tongue-in-cheek plots seem believable for the moment. They were a great departure from reality, but would not, I believe, have had the impact, nor longevity if not for the audience embracing you.
As a New Yorker, I have seen many celebrities on the street and in restaurants, but never felt the urge to interrupt them. However, one day I was going to lunch and walking down 3rd Avenue around 51st Street as you passed me by. You were walking briskly and it took a moment for my mind to register and without further thought I called out, "Hey... John Steed!"
You turned around and with a big smile, waived your heartfelt gratitude for the recognition, you so justly deserved, for the enjoyment you have brought to me. Everyone's career should be as impressionable.
Tonight I was simply browsing the Internet and as you read about someone, you often find yourself clicking links to others. somehow, it brought me to your website, which I had visited once before. However this time, I noted that it was your birthday and thought I would give you a "Shout out" once again.
I wish you good health and many more wonderful birthdays. Thank you, Mr. Macnee! |

The best radio interview that I ever heard in my entire life, was when Patrick Macnee was interviewed by the excellent film journalist Marjorie Bilbow on the BBC while the great man promoted the Bond film, 'A View to a Kill'........what a funny, interesting, articulate and inherently decent man that he sounded, I am 44 years old now, and this was 28 years ago; I will never forget it, and still have the original cassette that I was recorded it on - sincere best, Frank. |

Happy Birthday Patrick! It's quite the coincidence as today I was watching a Sherlock Holmes movie that starred you. I also won an auction on eBay for rare Avengers DVD's! I am 23 years old and live in Canada. I am a huge fan of the show! The fact that there are young fans out there just like me goes to show how much of an impact the show had and just how many generations it has touched. One of my goals for 2013 is to collect every episode on the rare and discontinued A&E DVD's. It is going to be difficult but I am up for the challenge! I wish you the best in this new year and I hope you have a fantastic birthday. Maybe you can celebrate Avengers style with a nice bottle of champagne. Take care! |

Happy Birthday to you, Patrick Macnee, and many, many happy returns of the day. We owe you so much here in Germany: You made television fascinating and colourful even when it was, technically speaking, still black and white. So we celebrated this happy day today with German cream cakes and - as a kind of tribute to John Steed - with pickles and cucumber sandwiches. An English picnic at home while snowflakes are dancing through the German winter outside! Well, I suppose today the sun was much more needed in Southern California. And yes, even one of your few sinful acts shall now be forgiven. Do you remember that you once caused a traffic jam in Duesseldorf on the River Rhine, very close to our present home? It happened in the summer of 1967. You and Diana Rigg were on a publicity tour through Germany which could only be handled with heavy precautions because due to your tremendous popularity people gathered wherever you appeared. So a restaurant in Duesseldorf where you went to with Diana had to be secured from the gathering crowds (or Krauts?) by the police causing some respectable traffic jams around the so-called "Altstadt" (the town centre). What a nice and elegant way of introducing the long overdue speed limit to German streets! No doubt about it: Mr. Macnee, you are needed.
We wish you a healthy 92nd year.
All our love from Germany

Wishing you a magnificently happy birthday, Mr. Macnee. I had the great pleasure of seeing you in SLEUTH on Broadway. It was an evening of incomparable, unforgettable theatre. Of course, I too grew up with THE AVENGERS, inarguably one of the most enjoyable shows ever put on television. Thank you for a lifetime of perennial entertainment and fine art. |

Dear Patrick Macnee,
Happy birthday to you!
In honour of a great actor I just watched MISSION...HIGHLY IMPROBABLE, my very first episode of THE AVENGERS that I watched in October 1967 at the age of 8 and that ended abruptly when my mother made a dive for the TV set to switch it off after Chivers had been about to flush down Captain Gifford into a gully... It was not until 1977 that I became a great fan of yours and Diana Rigg. The effects of the series were overwhelming for me and my teenage friends. In a nutshell: Suddenly this planet was interesting.
I wish you incredible many happy returns of the day and all the best from the bottom of my heart.
Lots of love
Gisela Otto |

Happy Birthday from the Black Forest dear Patrick. The weather here is quite bad with lots of snow falling (especially bad for a non-skier like me). I can imagine the temperatures in Southern California are much more cosy so that you can really enjoy your great day. May your ninety-second year of your life be an exciting and joyful one ! |
