Short description
The New Avengers is a British secret agent fantasy adventure television series broadcast during 1976 and 1977. It is a sequel to the 1960s series The Avengers and was developed by Albert Fennell and Brian Clemens.
A joint United Kingdom-France-Canada production, the show picks up the adventures of John Steed and his team of Avengers fighting evil plots and world domination. Whereas in the original series Steed had almost always been partnered with a woman, in the new series he had two partners: Mike Gambit, a top agent, crack marksman and trained martial artist, and Purdey, a former trainee with The Royal Ballet who was an amalgam of many of the best talents from Steed's previous female partners.

What's left behind the scenes
- Patrick Macnee (1922-2015) found it difficult to return to the role he played in the original series 'The Avengers' (1961-1969), and on the advice of producer Albert Fennell (1920-1988), he began watching Benny Hill's (1924-1992) parody of 'The Avengers'.
