I knew I had to see it as I am a fan of the TV series.  It's almost as if the writers watched a few old episodes, picked up a few ideas and threw them into the script.  Absolutely NOTHING worked, the daft things Steed did (like the tea making  in the car) worked in the TV show because it was done with style; in the  film it came over as  pathetic.  Uma Thurman is no Diana Rigg; she can't  act and was totally inept.
