A great actress on the stage, big screen and little screen. She played "bad" as well as anyone. For those of us who came of age in the mid to late 1960s she was an icon.
Indeed. She was very hot in The Avengers. I have seen some episodes recently and she still seemed hot all these years later.As Emma Peele, she was the first girl I ever "noticed". I've never seen anyone sexier since, to my taste.
The actress had many other fine qualities. RIP, Dame Rigg.
Was she made a Dame?
If so, why?
Many British actors/actresses are given titles of the empire. Diana Rigg, was a prolific and very accomplished actress on the stage as well as TV and movies, winning BAFTAs and a Tony award, in addition to several Emmy nominations. Helen Mirren is also a Dame.Was she made a Dame?
