The Avengers (1961) – Ian Hendry In Make-Up With Joan Watson Prior To Filming
Picture: Ian Hendry in make-up with Joan Watson (1961)
Note: If you look closely, you will see one of the show’s opening title credits/ slides mounted on a stand in the foreground of the photograph!
Wonderful behind the scenes picture of Ian Hendry ‘in make-up’ with Joan Watson – prior to filming an episode of The Avengers.
It’s always great to see some of the process that happens off camera – with the unsung heroes of television and film, those who never appear on screen but are integral to the success of a production.
I’ll share more on the story behind the picture in due course!
Until next time
