Biography of the ficticious Avengers Emma Peel (remember she's not real)
She lived at the
Penthouse Flat, Hampstead
(later at a studio flat
at Primrose Hill),
London, UK
Avengers Emma Peel (née Knight) was depicted as a widow (although her husband turned up later and that is why she left the series).
She was very fit (in all possible interpretations), was 5 ft 8½ins in height and had an IQ of 152. In her spare
time she worked as a karate-kicking spy for the British Government. Her partner was
the dashing Major John Steed.
She used an Italian Beretta 7.65 pistol. Avengers Emma Peel drove a white
1964 Lotus Elan S2 and later a powder blue 1966 Elan E3. She was also the author
of "Better Bridge Through Applied Mathematics", a magazine article written for the June issue of The Bridge Players
International Guide. She also did research for articles in the Science Weekly.

Avengers Emma Peel biography contd
Her father was Sir John Knight, the owner of Knight Industries. When he died, Emma Peel, at 21 years of age, took over
the helm of Knight Industries. One of her first executive decisions was to sack Professor Keller, the Head of
Automation because Keller wanted to take automation to the ultimate degree, replacing man with machine and subjugating
him to it.
During her stint with Steed, Avengers Emma Peel offered her assistance on a variety of cases from finding missing scientists and
diplomats, investigating the death of man killed with a 300 year old bullet, cracking down on a marriage bureau whose
clients quickly learned the meaning of "till death do us part"; escaping the deadly
talons of a crazed comic book character called The Winged Avenger; being kidnapped by a mad movie director who
wanted Avengers Emma Peel to star in his latest but deadly film production; and battling karate-chopping killer robots
called Cybernauts. Before each assignment Steed showed up at Emma's apartment and simply stated "Mrs. Peel -
we're needed." Both Steed and Emma reported to a grumpy, wheelchair-bound male supervisor known as "Mother."
