So why do I love this image so much? Ok, lets get past the obvious...It's Diana Rigg, the infamous Mrs Peel herself. Responsible for a few million viewers thoughts turning to jelly at the sight of her. And responsible for first inspiring my brain into it's kinky ways.
Emma was always seen as being in the spy game for the kicks. Highly capable and rarely rattled she was the 1960's thrill seeker. Even when facing the latest diabolical deathtrap or lunatic scientists/etc she kept her cool and either escaped or displayed the kind of calm that a zen buddist would kill for. One would almost thing she enjoyed being in danger and peril...? Take this picture. Here she is, strapped down and helpless yet the little smile and utter lack of panic, fear or even concern. It seems that she's allowed herself to be captured to take a break from herself. She can relax from being the tough martial-arts skilled spy and just indulge herself. Let her indulge a submissive side. So relaxed is she you'd swear she enjoys bondage and leather?
Of course, she could just be a sociopath who gets her kicks from near death experiences...
Oh you just know Emma Peel is a kinky chick and probably makes just the most minimum of efforts(if at all) to hide that from the world.
ReplyDeleteHell even when gagged Peel looks more annoyed than on the edge of a panic attack..and I like to think that's just because she's not a fan of the gags themselves.
