** In 1985, Brian Clemens developed an idea with Michael Grade and his wife Sarah Lawson called ''The Avengers...International!'', with Creator/PatrickMacnee returning. The series would have seen John Steed team up with Emma Peel's daughter-in-law Samantha (the original name for the character), who also drives a Lotus and has a missing husband named Peter who went missing on an espionage mission in Eastern Europe four years previously and an American operative named Christopher Cambridge, who was there to appeal to American networks. The pilot episode "Reincarnation" (written by Clemens) borrowed elements from the Tara King episode "Split" and expanded on them. An old adversary of Steed's named Lomax (whom he shot and believed killed years earlier) returns with a new appearance and extracts revenge. Utilising an advanced brain transplant technique that has fallen into the wrong hands, Lomax keeps coming back from the dead in a new body, the final one being that of a woman. Cathy Gale and Purdey from ''Series/TheNewAvengers'' would have been mentioned in dialogue. There was also a character named Weir, who believes in reincarnation and states that in a past life he was an elephant, until he was killed by a hunter, after which he came back as a soldier in Wellington's army at Waterloo. Although Clemens was paid for his script, none of the American networks thought his proposal was a viable one.
