Oh, and Ian Holm as Puck and Ian Richardson as Oberon. Most of the other elves were played by children, and Judi Dench is basically naked throughout the movie. Dressed primarily in makeup and a few leaves, not necessarily strategically placed.
      Dench, Mirren, and Rigg were all _gorgeous_ back then. Helen Mirren remarkably still is, over fifty years later. Some people just age remarkably.

      When you've seen an episode 12 times and still laugh, that can only be comic genius! And it was so clever and original, and you didn't have to send the kids out of the room with the tasteless, sorry excuse for humor on today's sitcoms. Get Smart was decades ahead of its time! There's a link with 99 telling about the show, and the CIA contacted the creators asking about those crazy devices, so they could be real. Well, it only took them half a century to make the shoe phone real! I don't know if they made a compact phone and I doubt there's a silver dollar coin that can get signals all over the planet. The movie a few years ago was a waste.

    This was a brilliant series. It was perfect for the time and it still is very cool. In some ways similar to a contemporaneous piece Rocky and Bullwinkle. One thing these both have in common is they have been duplicated and redone and remade and they'll never be as good as the originals. It's all about the je ne sais quoi...

    When Get Smart first hit air in 1965, Edward Platt had not even turned 50 years old! By the time the last episode aired in 1970, he was only 54 years old, but easily looked to be in his mid-to-late 60s all through the series. Sadly, he suffered from severe depression and took his own life in 1974 at the age of 58.
