Hello! Mr. MacNee
your work in the year of 1967 on The Avengers was truly classic. The work exhibited a more modern premise of equal rights. It was a prime example of individualism for secret agent spoofs . The show set a great deal of precedent for what is seen today. Truly magnificent characters Mrs. Peel & Steed were. I really enjoyed The Avengers. TV needs more shows of this type today. |

I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for all the wonderful memories that you have given me over the years. I am not one to be "starstruck", and I have never really been excited about celebrities, but I have to say that you are one of the very few actors that i will drop everything to see if you are on tv. I will watch anything that comes along with you in it. I love your acting very much. You have a grace, a style and a warmth that radiates on the screen. I know that it will never happen, but I would have loved to, at some point in my life, have met you and asked you all about your life and the times on the sets of the many ventures that you have undertaken. I bet that it would be fascinating. I didn't realize, until I discovered your website, that you had books available. I will now seek them out and embark on an adventure of reading them all. Again, thank you. You are a rare treasure! |

Mr Macnee, a belated Happy Birthday to you! As a fellow resident of the Coachella Valley, I hope you're enjoying the "just right" temperature we've had recently! I've been a fan ever since I was a boy of 8 when I stumbled across The Avengers late one night on PBS, when I had snuck out of bed. Now, nearly 25 years later, I've just ordered your autobiography. I tried to read it when I was young, but my mother read it first and wouldn't let me, saying it was "for grown ups." Looking forward to a good read! Wishing you the best of health and happiness this birthday! Take good care, always a fan:

Dear Patrick,
just a few lines of appreciation from a family who have enjoyed, and continue to enjoy the re-runs, a perfect pleasure to watch together. John Steed is a character unlike any other, a testimony to your abilities and unique personality...you ought really to be quite (justifiably) proud. Hope this finds you in good spirits, and thankyou for the enjoyment you give us. Best Wishes, the Evans family. |

Dear Patrick,
A belated Happy Birthday! After having just finished watching my recently purchased "The Avengers: The Emma Peel Megaset (2006 Collection)", I thought I'd look you up on wikipedia. That article led me to this wonderful site, which I've been perusing for some time. I've enjoyed your work for years, and especially have marveled at your great, unique speaking voice. What a gift you have been to cinema, TV, and stage. And, for the written word, too! You are certainly among the best actors - ever! Again, I wish you a Happy, albeit belated, Birthday.
Peace and Joy,

Sir,
avengers inspired playfulness, humor, elegance unlike the present series too bloody and realistic so we all feel become pathologist!
avengers was optimistic, colorful, smiling slightly.
Diana Rigg was exceptional in all her attitudes, her expressions, so fair. She was so elegant.
I still remember your words at the time of her departure when you say "Thank you Emma" I understood in your face a deep and genuine emotion.
I think this series will remain a benchmark of elegance, courtesy and civility nowadays unfortunately disappeared: it will remain forever a model to remind us.
Yes, the civilized world could be fun if everyone would bring a touch of elegance and generosity as Diana and you have been able to make in this unforgettable series
Thank you for your immense contribution as an actor and human beeing.
Your presence and that of Emma Peel will remain eternal well beyond human years and generations to come.
God bless you.
Sincerely
Georges, Meudon, France |

Dear Patrick,
After just watching another episode of The Avengers from my collection i'd thought i would see if there are any updates on your webite. And to my delight there are! A very Happy belated Birthday & hope you had a marvellous special time with your family.I am 36 this year & have been a strong fan since first seeing The Avengers during the early eighties. I have managed to collect on dvd all series from the Diana, Thorson and New Avengers so far. Soon i shall endeavour to collect the earlier series. I also have some of the many books & calenders from the which has given me many hours of enjoyment reading about the production, locations, interviews & much more insight of behind the scenes & cast.
It is such a shame in today's world & especially in the U.K that we seem to have lost the intelligent humour, morals, education, class, dignity & the use of our once rich language which is so evident in The Avengers. Would it not have been great if John Steed & Mrs Emma Peel were role models instead of what we have today! A little champagne in the right hands, at the right time is a must wouldn't you say :-) And indeed i feel that you sir are an incredible role model. Though obviously i cannot speak personally, watching many a film where you star. You always, with your very distinguished voice add a touch of class and show the world all that is truly British. Thank you very much for bringing to life such a wonderful character in an amazing series. Good health to you sir |

Wishing you a belated happy birthday wish with many more to come. You are one of my most treasured actors. I've been an avid fan of "The Avengers" from the time when the first Diana Rigg episodes aired in the US. I've collected all of the Avengers DVDs and seeing you as the young Marley in Scrooge every Christmas has become a tradition in my family.
And who could not recognize your distinctive voice delivering the introduction to the original "Battlestar Galactica" series?
Genealogy has been a passion of mine for many years, as it has been for you too.
I've often hoped for a day when I could meet you in person, but reality brings me back to earth.
Take care, be well and be safe Patrick.

Happy belated birthday Patrick. I first watched "The Avengers" as a child of 10 and am still enjoying the episodes over 40 years later. Noone has ever had the panache you have always possessed, your wit and sartorial elegance. I also loved and do love Diana Rigg. I wanted to be Mrs. Peel. The plots of "The Avengers" were so intelligent, they beat anything TV has to offer today. I just watched 2 favorite episodes again: "The Joker," and "The Superlative Seven." I also enjoyed "The New Avengers" and recently revisted that whole series thanks to Netflix. Thanks to the Internet and this guestbook I can finally reach out to you and let you know how much you are appreciated. From a fan for 40+ years, Janet |

Dear Patrick MacNee, You have always been one of my heroes. There will never be another "John Steed" for me, as you are the ultimate "Avenger." (2.) I have watched all of your films, and television appearances, and consider you to be, like the late David Niven, "one of England's masters of sophistication, intelligence, and ultimate class." (3.) Two years ago, I became the 'literary agent' for "The Estate of Geoffrey Jenkins," the great South African thriller writer, who sold 40,000,000 copies of his books worldwide. (Catch me on your computer at 'Dave White Presents,' the program for January 20, 2010, the Ron Payne Interview, www.audioentertainment.org/dwp) where I discuss the Jenkins hero, Commander Geoffrey Peace from the novels, "A Twist of Sand," and "Hunter Killer." (3.) My only regret is that we cannot cast you as Commander Peace in a forthcoming motion picture, now in the works. (He is about 30-35 years old.) But, as we are moving along on our project, I hope you will leave the door open to make an appearance with us. This would be a great "honour," for me, personally, and a thrill to be working with England's "greatest clubland hero--and national treasure.." Cheers to you, RON PAYNE, producer. |

An appreciation for a composer, 06.02.2010 just died of Patrick´s birthday
London. The British jazz musician John Dankworth died on Saturday at the age of 82 years in a London hospital. Dankworth composed music for film and television, including the theme song for the TV series "The Umbrella, Charm and Melon. The saxophonist has worked during his long career with many jazz greats like Charlie Parker, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Benny Goodman, Herbie Hancock and Oscar Peterson together (Reuters)
Great respect for real experts in music. |

Dear Patrick:
Have a wonderful birthday and many more to come. Thank you for so many hours of enjoyment and pleasure over the years. You and the Avengers were always a bright spot in my life and continue to be so. Many's a time, when in a difficult or uncomfortable situation, I ask myself, what would Steed do? I may not do it, but at least I'm thinking it and that makes all the difference. Thanks again for expanding the horizons of this Brooklyn, New York boy, inspiring my imagination and giving me such a wonderful role model to aspire to. One who has brought joy to so many is truly blessed. If I ever have a son, I'm definitely naming him after you.
Have a wonderful life, and keep the Bentley running.
Yours,
Jonathan Abrams |
