...some, nobody will ever fill Emma Peel's leather bodysuit like Dame Diana Rigg. Still, UMA THURMAN is doing a creditable job. The Suit--a staple of the '60s British show The Avengers--is back again now that the show is being made into a feature film (a movie of a TV show! Why didn't anyone think of this before?!), with Thurman, RALPH FIENNES and Sean Connery. As for the old Avengers, they're perfectly happy. "Actors complain that their TV shows have not been good for them, but The Avengers has been great to me," says Patrick Macnee...

Exactly what she intends Julius to do, if anything more than act as a human warning beacon, is unclear.

It should have been the capstone to his coronation; instead, it was a critical fiasco. Letterman's mocking irreverence ("Oprah...Uma") fell flat with the Hollywood crowd, and with most viewers. In truth, his performance wasn't all that bad, but it foreshadowed his ratings decline. Even though that drop can be explained largely by CBS's prime-time collapse (which has reduced his lead-in audience) and the loss...
