Goldfinger/Honor Blackman in-joke by Steed


I was just watching "Too Many Christmas Trees" from 1965 (season 4). Mrs. Peel was handing Steed some Christmas cards he had gotten in the mail, commenting on the number of them from women. To paraphrase the conversation:

Mrs. Peel reading the cards: Best wishes for the future... from Cathy.

Steed: Oh, Mrs. Gail. How nice of her to remember me.

*he looks at the return address on the envelope*

Steed: Hmmm....What's she's doing in Fort Knox?

LOL!!

I think there's another, but I can't think of it right now.

The last episode of Cathy Gale / Honor Blackman makes reference to the upcoming Bond film also. It was something like (and this may not be too exact):

Steed: You'll be relaxing in the Caribbean while I work.

Gale: I'd hardly call it relaxing.

Steed: What? Pussyfooting around in the sand . . .

"The Hidden Tiger" and the New Avengers episode "To catch a Rat" contained Pussy Galore references as well .
