Interesting idea about how a modern audience would get on better with Cathy than Emma; is that because she fits the sort of character profile that is less tolerant of the main protagonist than the more playful Emma? More in keeping with the latest trend in feisty sidekicks like those in other cult ...

If the show was to be remade, I'd go with the Steed and Mrs Gale partnership. I'm not altogether convinced that the show would work in a 2010's setting, but I think the dynamic of their relationship would work far better for modern audiences.

I love Big Finish's Lost Episodes series, so I'll be interested to hear how they adapt these for audio. I've got quite into the various Avengers and New Avengers comic strips recently, so it's great that Big Finish are planning to publish a graphic novel with all 8 stories from the Diana strips too.

My hardback copy arrived today. :) I've only had a chance to flick through it so far, but it looks really good. Can't wait to read it in more detail, (particularly the section with synopsis of the two unmade story outlines).
