DID YOU KNOW?? The name "Emma Peel" was a play on the phrase "Man Appeal" or "M. Appeal." Diana Rigg was a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company before landing the role. She took Karate lessons for two and a half years to prepare, but was the first woman to perform Kung Fu on-screen!! Ray Austin secretly taught her Kung Fu, even though the producers wanted her to stick to Judo and Karate!
