Can anyone remember an episode of the New Avengers in which Purdey used a leather whip ?

No lol

Too bad, it'd be funny. However, I think leather whips are more an accessory for Cathy Gale than Purdey !

'Too bad,...' certainly ! Cathy , mind you, was a very formidable
woman ! With a whip she'd be,...well I wouldn't cross her Purdey's character could have been spiced up a lot more though... a whip maybe Leather-- catsuits etc., etc. a la Emma Peel , as well as a little stiffer and more regular female competition in the form of top female agents or villainesses guesting on The New Avengers ! Purdey was scripted as invulnerable and could come across as somewhat haughty, and yet though she is scripted to dispense with The Angel's of Death rather too easily, I'm not convinced by her supposed physical prowess in her tete-a-tete with the Angel's ! She looks anything but in control of the fight ! In fact ,to me, she seems to be struggling even against compliant opponents ! Moira Foot and Caroline Munro are two big, strong, fit and stunning women , well able to handle a bit of rough stuff ! Purdey just does not look physically equipped to handle ONE not to mention two of these 'Angels' ! If Moira Foot could deck Gambit with a High-kick , surely she should be seen to at least wobble Purdey in her boots ! The superbly athletic Bond Girl Caroline Munro looked much stronger than Joanna Lumley in their clinches and said in an interview that she was much better than was expected, and was in top kicking shape when she guested in The New Avengers, and had to hold back a bit ! Purdey being tossed to the floor by Tammy and landing beside Gambit, saying to him! 'I may need a bit of assistance !' with Gambit teasing
'I can see that 1' would have made Purdey and The New Avengers more compelling viewing !
