What's on TV? Friday, January 23, 1970




Held over from Saturday's TV Guide review of this Northern California edition is "Married Alive," a presentation of Prudential's On Stage series of occasional plays, which appeared on NBC between 1968 and 1970. "Married Alive" stars Robert Culp and Diana Rigg in a comedy about an explorer (Culp) who says he's been suffering from amnesia for the last ten years and claims to be the long-lost husband of a wealthy English woman (Rigg). The two get along famously, and the children love him, but is he really who he claims to be? Now, you'll recall that in Diana Rigg's final episode of The Avengers, which aired in 1968, Mrs. Peel leaves with her husband Peter, a pilot who had been lost (and presumed dead) after an air crash in the Amazon. (Not for ten years, alas, but only three.) Considering how many roles actors play, I doubt that Diana Rigg saw the irony in this, but I'd like to think so, wouldn't you?

  1. I must have seen "Married Alive," given how besotted I was (and still am) with Diana Rigg, and how much I liked Robert Culp Back In The Day, but honestly, I can't remember this AT ALL.
