Well done indeed (unsurprisingly!). Will rec this on my LJ. I need to get back to your fascinating post about Albert Stroller and Napoleon Solo - my brain's been mulling that over quite a bit.

Thanks for the lovely essay!

Very interesting piece. I particularly liked the historical background: I've seen a lot of MFU, but most of this I didn't know. Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for the feedback!

I wasn't sure if I should put in the background, but as an academic, I just can't help myself.

That was the intent. There's always room in the harem.

Thanks for the feedback!

This is a great essay, and the context for the show and character was much appreciated. I only know the show through repeats, and it's associated with a whole host of British spy shows and Trek for me. But you really conveyed the appeal and intrigue of the character well.
