They have the Charles Dance version of Rebecca with Rigg as Mrs. Danvers. It has Spanish subtitles, but it's in English. I forgot that I also saw her on Broadway in My Fair Lady. She played Mrs. Higgins. The world has lost a great, great actor!Piercenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-84776457944003078962020-09-10T14:19:00.505-04:002020-09-10T14:19:00.505-04:00diana rigg rest in peace doll. @--8----

It aired on PBS's "Mystery!" (though it's not really a mystery) in the '80s or early '90s. I was able to see it again a couple of years ago and it held up -- in fact, I discovered it had left an even stronger impression on me than I thought as I could still (after 25+ years) recite more than a few of Helena's lines along with her.

Hope she rates her own post...she deserves all the posts!<br /><br />Loved her in everything I've ever seen her in and I've been following her career since The Avengers. She's was inimitable there of course but it hardly was representative of everything she was capable of, though it was a good showcase for her humor. <br /><br />If you've never seen it you must try and tack down her TV miniseries Mother Love. She's electrifying as the outwardly chic inwardly bat shit crazy Helena. Her fantastic mystery series The Mrs. Bradley Mysteries is another essential as is "In This House of Brede" where she portrays a business woman who forsakes worldly things to become a Benedictine nun. I could go on and on but suffice to say she never disappointed. <br /><br />She also seemed in real life to be a fantastic person-warm, wry and witty. I've always remembered when she was interviewed awaiting her plane to return to England after she had completed her run in Medea, for which she won the Tony, and the news had just been released that she was on the Queen's honors list for that year. The reporter asked how she felt and she quipped "I'm a very tired Dame!" joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13372093.post-52562658452283458882020-09-10T10:27:30.081-04:002020-09-10T10:27:30.081-04:00Diana Rigg was a very important part of my adolesc...Diana Rigg was a very important part of my adolescence. When the Avengers plays on American Television in the late 60s, she was something else to a 14 year old boy. She wore trendy clothes,especially leather jump suits with thigh high boots. She had replaced the late Honor Blackman (Pussy Galore) as Emma Peel. I saw her in the Katharine Hepburn role in Suddenly Last Summer in London. The British theater, cinema and TV has lost a great artist. Hail the traveler, Dame Diana Rigg!Piercenoreply@blogger.com
