The Avengers
Day: Wednesday July 16 2014
Time: 1:00 PM Eastern
Channel: Cozi
Record number: 15

Title: The Avengers (1961)
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Diana Rigg, Caroline Blakiston

Description: Episode: "The Gravediggers" (4.2)

After tying up and gagging a nurse (Blakiston), Mrs. Peel (Diana) goes undercover in the nurse's borrowed surgical gown. Blakiston is left laying on the floor tied hand and foot, and gagged with a white cleave improvised from her surgical mask. She attracts help by kicking the furniture, and Mrs. Peel is in turn captured. She is tightly bound down to an operating table and gagged with a white cloth (perhaps gauze), complete with packing. The villains discuss her fate as she struggles against her bonds.

Later she is tied down to the railroad tracks as a train approaches. Will Steed save her in time? Great close-ups, and Diana Rigg looks awesome in her tight leather jumper and knee-high black leather boots.

Since the train is a scale model, Mrs. Peel is bound along the tracks, rather than across them in the classical style. Her wrists are tied to each rail above her head and her ankles are similarly bound in a modified spreadeagle. Diana struggles against her bonds as Steed fights his way across the grounds in an attempt to save her, as the piano score pays homage to the silent serials which inspired the entire sequence. Steed manages to free Emma from the tracks in time for her to use use her legs in the battle, while still wearing her tight two-piece gag.

The Nurse is captured at 35 minutes and seen again tied at 37 minutes. Mrs Peel is tied to the operating table at 39 minutes then to the tracks at 42 minutes with short shots of her struggling from 43 minutes between shots of Steed fighting with the train driver and is rescued at 46 minutes in a 50 minute broadcast without adverts.

Narrow gauge ride-on large model train. Wearing leather suit (with some fabric in the top so not a complete catsuit as some other episodes).

One final note about the location used for this episode- there are publicity stills which show Diana tied across the rails in more expected posture, and being teased by Patrick MacNee (Steed).

Ulee's Gold
Day: Wednesday July 16 2014
Time: 7:50 PM Eastern
Channel: MGM
Record number: 21

Title: Ulee's Gold (1997)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Jessica Biel, Christine Dunford, Vanessa Zima

Description: Earlier in the movie, in the first half, 30-something mother Dunford is tied down to a bed with sheets, ungagged, while she is going through severe withdrawal of a drug that the bad guys kept her strung out on. Scenes of her strugging against the bonds ensue, with family friend Connie Hope (Patricia Richardson of the TV show "Home Improvement") having to inject her with a sedative.

At around 85mins the three Jackson women, teen daughter Biel and pre-teen daughter Zima, along with Dunford, are being held captive in the living room of their home by a pair of bad guys out to extort Ulee Jackson himself. After one of them asks "Got any duct tape, Mr. Jackson?", he responds with a stone-faced "Sure". The very next shot opens with a panning close-up of the 3 damsels each having their feet and hands wrapped multiple times with duct tape to chairs, then cuts to a close-up of Biel being gagged onscreen with duct tape wrapped at least 3 times very tightly around her mouth (she even rolls her eyes back during this sequence, such is the realism). The panning shot continues as we see Zima and Dunford also sporting similar wraparound duct tape gags, but they have both only received a single wrap offscreen--considerably less brutal than Biel's. Doe-eyed expressions from both of them, but all remain silent and docile.

As their captors leave the house, the lights are (infuriatingly) switched off. In the darkness we can still just about make out the 3 damsels, with Biel attempting to free herself by energetically rocking her chair back and forth. A while later, upon being discovered by Connie, the lights are turned back on and we hear some rather quiet mmpphhing. We're treated to a final panning shot showing Dunford, Zima and Biel, all still taped to their chairs and gagged as before. Biel, however, has struggled so much that her chair is now tipped over onto the floor on its side. The scene ends with a full-body shot of Biel, who mmpphs quietly just once. All are released offscreen.

Total length of both sequences: 1min 17secs.
