Drinking Guide to The Avengers

To be played with a bottle of Bollinger Maison Speçial Cuvée Brut or a bottle of Moët & Chandon Brut Impérial, chilled to 6–8° C (43–48° F) - better champagne can be served at a higher temperature, but is best in the usual range.

Contestants must *sip* their champagne:

• Every time Emma smiles with a sideways glance
• Every time Emma flicks her hair
• Every time Steed doffs his bowler
• Every time Steed swings his umbrella
• Every innuendo
• Every time Emma is tied up (2)
• Every time anyone else is tied up
• Every fight scene
• Every car chase
• Every time Emma says “Steed” (twice if it’s a question)
• Every time Steed says “Mrs. Peel” (twice if it’s a question)
• Every time Steed is charming
• Every time Steed is polite
• Every time Steed is philanderous
• Every time Emma is coquettish
• Every time anyone drinks something
• …or whenever you feel like it.
