#MONSTERMONDAY: PAUL BERESFORD AND HIS CYBERNAUGT REVENGE!

#MonsterMonday: What a REAL smoothy this character was. Cushing's Paul Beresford, was the brother of Clement Armstrong, (see 'The Cybernauts' episode 1966) played by Michael Gough, the creator of the Cybernauts. He blames Steed and Mrs. Peel for his brother's death at the cold hands of his own creation. Aided by Armstrong's assistant Benson, he abducts several scientists who are blackmailed into producing a new batch of Cybernauts. Whilst he is the perfect gentleman towards Mrs. Peel, his aim is to turn her and Steed into human robots. It's a firm fan favourite, Cushing is at the top of his game in this performance, Beresford is a clever and manipulative genius, but is he also a madman and this week's MONSTER? You decide!

HE'S GOT MRS PEEL UNDER HIS SPELL AND UNDER THE CONTROL OF HIS LITTLE BOX! WILL BERESFORD SUCCEED IN HIS EVIL PLAN??

PAUL BERESFORD, TO QUOTE ANOTHER FINE CUSHING

PATRICK MACNEE HAS DIED TODAY

We are all very sad to hear of the passing of Patrick Macnee today. A man who, without doubt, had incredible style on both on the screen and off it. Know mostly for playing the role of Steed in the Brit tv series 'The Avengers' ...in which Peter also appeared in an episode entitled Return of the Cybernauts, with his faithful side kick Mrs Peel... Macnee also appeared in a real horror entitled Incense for the Damned aka Bloodsuckers...terrible. A statement on the actor's website today reads: "Wherever he went, he left behind a trove of memories."

RIP Patrick Macnee 1922-2015

BRIAN CLEMENS DIES 1913 - 2015

We are very sad indeed to hear that Brian Clemens passed away this weekend. Clemens was a very prolific and talented film and television producer and screenwriter. Responsible for the tv cult series 'The Avengers' and 'The New Avengers'. Both Hammer films, 'Dr Jekyll and Sister Hyde' and 'Captain Kronos'. He also wrote one of the Hammer House of Mystery and Suspense' episodes in 1984, 'Mark of the Devil'.

Our Peter Cushing connection is of course the two 'Avengers' episodes that PC appeared in, only one of them did Clemens write, 'The Eagle's Nest' in 1978. This was the first episode of the Avengers revival series, 'The New Avengers'. Clemens had a style that was very much his own, mysterious, quirky and most of all quite original and fun! Brian Clemens OBE 1931 - 2015.
