Gareth Hunt
Gareth Hunt is an English actor, made famous by his role as Mike Gambit in The New Avengers which also starred a youthful Joanna Lumley as Purdee. They were complimented by the only member of the original series The Avengers to reprise his role, Patrick Macnee as John Steed.
The curly-haired Hunt subsequently made a series of television ads for Nescafe, with a trademark move; to shake his clenched hand then open it and smell it, to reveal coffee beans. Naturally, this somewhat dubious hand motion and his rhyming name (See Cockney rhyming slang) earned his place in the hearts of all 1970's schoolchildren, viz. "Don't be such a Gareth Hunt".
