AVENGERS: DIADEM

Emma Peel returns to DVD on today and Spy Vibe is throwing an Avengers party. In this rare short film, Diadem, Diana Rigg plays a character fashioned after Emma Peel (fashioned in mini skirt, I might add), and runs through thirteen minutes of action and adventure. The film is shrouded in mystery and does not appear in Rigg's official filmography. Diadem is said to have been produced by an amateur crew in Germany in 1966 for the 8mm home movie market. Note the musical nods to Laurie Johnson. Enjoy! See Avengers Sing here.
