Topic: Cathy Gale


  
  The Avengers (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cathy Gale (Honor Blackman), who was self-assured and good with her fists and quick witted.
Another change during the Gale era was the transformation for Steed from a rather rough-and-tumble agent into the stereotypical British gentleman, complete with bowler hat and umbrella, both of which turn out to be full of tricks, most notably a sword hidden within the umbrella handle and a steel plate concealed in the hat.
North American audiences saw the Cathy Gale episodes of the series for the first time in the early 1990s when they were broadcast on AandE.

Gale turned out to be the most popular and successful foil for the suave agent, and the other characters did not return after season two.
Gale does eventually warm up to Steed, and in the season three stories where she is the exclusive companion to him, their relationship develops nicely and they become much warmer and closer to each other.
Gale seems to display more annoyance than admiration for him; and frankly I do find his character a little too cocky, enough to make me agree with her.

Cathy Gale was to become the first truly liberated, self-sufficient, fighting female character ever created for television, and way, way ahead of her time.
This explains the marked shift in Cathy's character between her first episode, "Death Dispatch," and her second, "Warlock." In the former she was, in general, fairly pleasant, and smiled frequently.
Tired of Cathy producing a gun from her purse week after week, the producers began a shift away from firearms and, after a brief attempt at hiding knives and the like on her person, settled on hand-to-hand combat.

While she doesn't possess the devil-may-care attitude of Emma Peel or the playful kitsch of Tara King, Cathy Gale has a no nonsense approach to these episodes, which suits perfectly with what tone of the series was all about at that time.
Steed is a lot younger in the Cathy Gale episodes, and I think it's interesting and refreshing to see his character as more serious and dark, instead of the more comical Steed from the Emma Peel episodes.
And the fact that music was used seldomly in the Cathy Gale episodes (in contrast to the Emma Peel episodes, in which a lot of instrumental background music was used), it made them even more realistic and thrilling to me than the Emma Peel episodes.

 The Avengers
Cathy Gale soon became one of the very first female TV characters who could hold her own against any man. She was often called to perform action scenes (which were filmed live incidently) and the show's producers gave her an increasing number of leather outfits to withstand the rough and tumble in these scenes.
Another typical episode of this time is 'Intercrime' in which John and Cathy are pitted against an international crime outfit who have just recruited a female German assassin (Hilda Stern) into their ranks.
She is arrested entering the country but after escaping from custody Hilda Stern (Julia Arnall) seeks out Intercrime where Cathy Gale is impersonating her.
