Well done Franky! That is a bargain buy it now price of £25. I've seen it go for over twice that at auction. I bought it a few years ago. It's a great book with some rare shots. Enjoy :!:

Yes, I'll risk reading it, it looks in good nick. It can go next to my Honor Blackman's Book of Self-Defence.
Definitely my favourite era of the show.

I've had the same muse..myself, whether or not to read / leaf thru a prized, perhaps even high dollar book / magazine of the era..and for some of us, Honor's tenure on the series, was acquired taste...as in the States, we were introduced to the Diana era...

Thanks, cyberrich.

I saved off the photos from the Ebay listing if anyone needs them.

You've got this for 25 quid!?!?!

Congrats and my sincere reaction:

Thanks! Sadly I can't see the video as it is blocked in the UK :) Hopefully Brian Blessed was shouting something nice.

Arrived to-day, made very welcome! Looks great, doesn't smell smoky or musty, little sign of foxing or fading, it has obviously been well-kept. A lovely item!

I think that is Peter Hammond, in the upper right of the photo with Honor in makeup. It certainly looks like him from when he acted as a semi-regular in The Buccaneers.

Definitely Peter, he's in the extras for "Warlock", a set of stills showing him directing the dancers at rehearsal. John Bryce next to him I think.

I don't think there is, any more. I also tried it on the Wayback Machine and it didn't work.
