Can anyone tell me why in theR2 8 disk box set only episode one season one and episode 1 season 2 have commentary..?.

Seems odd that only Gareth Hunt, and Brian Clements give a commentary, why no Jo lumley or Patrick Macnee included..?.I know Patrick lives in America and is getting on a bit now ,but he could have recorded his commentary.And Jo Lumley i am sure would have loved to have been included.

Was it because of some of the unflattering things, Patrick said in his book about certain people, who made the show?.That he felt he was being "sidelined" and not getting as much screen time compared to Hunt and Lumley?

I was disappointed to discover that "The Avengers" dvds featuring Patrick MacNee and Dame Diana Rigg have no dvd commentaries at all.

It would have been great to have heard these two beloved and consummate actors, speaking about the days when thay appeared in these wonderful and classy episodes. Oh, well...
