Quote
1
[on Patrick Macnee] An absolute gentleman. Patrick took me under his wing. And by that time...well, I think he didn't even want to do it anymore.. But they threw some money at him and said that it wouldn't be forever...just a couple more years. Patrick was just charming and delightful.

[on replacing Diana Rigg in The Avengers (1961)] I win battles on the fact that I am a woman. The clothes are all feminine - silk and chiffon. And we are bringing back the bosom. The dresses will have plunge neck lines.
