Cathy Gale was indeed the best fighter out of all the Avengers Girls!!!!

Cathy Gale fights were more realistic and a lot harder than Emma Peele's!

These fights are equal in quality to the Bond movies of the era.

Cathy Gale was a great fighter .... she could use Judo but she was also strong as a bull and could just flat out overpower the guys she fought. She handed out some major beatdowns.

I learned to love this show with the Peel episodes since those were the first I ever saw. Now I'm watching the Cathy Gale episodes as well and I do so with great pleasure! I LOVED Diana Rigg as Emma and now with watching I really like Honor Blackman as Cathy, too, but I wouldn't say one is better than the other because it's about what they made out of their scripts and dialogue and they had their fighting instructions and are very different characters, even Steed was a total different man then!

She's one of the most athletically gifted people I have ever seen in my life . She's definitely the ultimate action heroine of the 60's , the female counterpart of Robert Conrad of "Wild Wild West" fame !

This woman was tougher then any female heroines even in recent years.

Cathy Gales fight scenes were more realistic as she was trained in judo and she put real effort into her action scenes, she did all the stunts herself and didn't use a double.

Emma peels fights in the first series were good , but got to theatrical in the colour series, she did use stunt doubles.

If it's decided to make the Avengers again then the female lead should use the cathy gale judo style of fighting and not the over the top karate/kung fu style like charlies angels..
