This page list all the people killed in episodes of the first Diana Rigg season of The Avengers; as well as the people doing the killing, and their modi operandi.

Speaking trivially, Man-eater of Surrey Green is the most bloodthirsty episode, in which twenty-three people are unceremoniously dispatched (although mostly by an alien plant), followed by The Girl From Auntie with eleven unfortunates. There is not one episode in which no-one dies at all, although The Gravediggers, The Master Minds, Silent Dust, Room Without A View, and Small Game For Big Hunters only top one a piece.

• A note on my shorthand.
  
• A double question mark [ ?? ] indicates that I'm not entirely sure (or convinced) that the character died.
• A single question mark [ ? ] indicates that I'm either not sure of a characters name, or not sure who committed the crime.

The guide is in three parts, use the links below to navigate them (or use those at the bottom of the pages).
