The Avengers - Dragonsfield (1961)

Dragonsfield is the 26th episode of the first season of The Avengers.

Steed is sent to research facility when a scientist developing a radiation-proof material dies of radiation.

I'm not going to tell you anything about The Avengers series its self other than its very cool, ran for quite a while and a more quintessential slice of 60's British television you will be hard pressed to find.

The Avengers - Invasion of the Earthmen (1969)

This is just rubbish, isn't it. 

From a script by Dalek creator; Terry Nation Invasion of the Earthmen is regarded by The Avengers fans as one of the worst episodes ever.  It may at its heart have a passably Avengersy central idea about a school to train space cadets that then freezes them for future use but beyond that everything else here either lacks polish or is just plain poor.  A lacklustre script, uninspired central performances, mediocre directing and a really, really dreadful stupid space suit.
