All around us were shiny marvels -
I'd gazed, spellbound, at the sleek tablets and wicked video games -
Now we can access all of the freeview channels on our smart TV -
Anne can watch Dog Whisperer whenever she wants to - I can watch Nazi Mega Structures or Most Haunted -
Last night, I watched an ancient episode of The Avengers -
There was John Steed, in black and white, smiling his urbane murderous smile -
Emma Peel was a slender delight in leather - my heart pounded wildly seeing her fell a sneering mastermind -
I took no notice of the preposterous plot -
It was enough to see John Steed rescue Emma Peel from a devilish machine, to hear them laughing as they jumped into a mini moke, driving off into the 1960's -
