Not sure of the guys outside the UK will get this but there's a wonderful TV series called "The Detectorists" with Emma Peel's (Diana Rigg) daughter - Rachael Stirling. She's also in another wonderful series called "Capital" and, yes, she's as hot as her Mum was!

No only was Rachael Stirling excellent in The Detectorists but Diana Rigg played her mother.
She was also in the first series of Channel 5s version of All Creatures Great and Small as Mrs Pumphrey but only made 2 episodes before she died.

Saw the series over here in the States & was shocked at how similar Rachel Stirling was to her mother, absolute spitting image!! Strong genes I guess .

"The Detectorists" is a nice watch isn't it.
If you like gentle, rather clever, English humour. Similar to "Last of the Summer Wine".
Watched an interview with Diana Rigg some time ago.
She recounted how, in her early days, she appeared in a play that was being directed by Sir John Gielgud.
During prehearsal he called her over to ask,
"Miss Rigg, are you wearing a brassiere ?"
"Actually Sir John, no".
"Well Miss Rigg, please do so in future, it's most disconcerting".

Rather surprised he, of all people, was distracted.
