“We’re very excited to tell our legion of Australian and international fans that we’re expanding the world of Miss Fisher into the fabulous era of the 1960s. The series will be full of the usual three F’s our fans have come to expect - feminism, fashion and fun!” Fiona says. “Ms Fisher, next generation, will be as glamorous as her aunt, brandishing her signature pearl-handled pistol and bantering endlessly with the main man in her life - but her stylish apartment, her sleek sports-car and her cutting-edge wardrobe have certainly moved with the times,” Deb Cox adds. Author of the original Phryne Fisher Books, Kerry Greenwood, is delighted. “To see fabulous Phryne inspire a whole new generation of murder mysteries and for the Fisher family to expand in this way gives our lovely fans even more of what they crave. The 1960’s was another decade of exciting change for women and we’re all in for a real treat,” she says." More info at Every Cloud Productions and The West Australian. If you enjoy vintage fashion and great female characters, check out The Avengers (some MOD designs were first seen on TV worn by Diana Rigg's Emma Peel), and the Mrs Bradley Mysteries with Diana Rigg, set in the 1920s like Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries. Spy Vibers might also enjoy the classic Katy Keene (1945-1961) comics, where readers got to submit their own fashion designs to the creator, Bill Woggon (see overview here). And while you're exploring 1960s Down Under, check out my episodes of the Cocktail Nation radio series. Enjoy!
