respect Joanna Lumley
Joanna Lumley was an early ‘Bond Girl’ in ‘On her Majesty’s Secret Service’. She became a big star in the UK as a secret agent in the 1976 revival of British TV cult classic drama ‘The (New) Avengers’. This drama was unusual for having a female lead that was intellegent, pro-active, assertive, witty and sexy. Her character called ‘Purdey‘ (after the gun) had a distinctive haristyle that became very popular in 70’s Britain.
Since that series Joanna Lumley has remained an icon of British female sexiness. She is probably more well known internationally for her role as “Patsy” in “Absolutely Fabulous“. Less well know for her long term support of the Free Tibet Campaign.
