Barbara Bain was terrific and versatile in Mission: Impossible. She won three consecutive Emmy Awards for Best Dramatic Actress for her performances in 1967-1969.
But I thought she was bland in Space 1999.

One Dress a Day Challenge
July: Green Redux (+ Blue Redux)
Mission: Impossible (s2e18, "The Emerald") / Barbara Bain as Cinnamon Carter
Appropriately for an episode about an emerald, Cinnamon wears a brilliant green dress to lure a target into a high-stakes poker game. Although this episode aired during the 1967-68 season, the dress has some interesting features that look forward to the 1970s. It is long and narrow, gathered at the neck, with double shoulder straps and a slit up the side. A long, sheer, patterned panel of cloth hangs from the back like a cape.
With the dress, she wears matching pumps and hair ribbon, but no jewelry. She starts the evening (briefly) with a diamond bracelet, but she quickly manages to lose that in the poker game--all part of the plan, of course.

Today in the Department of Before They Were Star Trek Stars: George Takei guest stars in "The Carriers," episode 10 of the first season of Mission: Impossible (original air date November 19, 1966). Although this episode aired two months after the premiere of Star Trek, it's hard to say which was filmed first, and even though it's an edge case I'm including it because I liked it and I had a nice, clear Blu-Ray copy to screencap. So there.
Takei plays Roger Lee, a scientist and IMF agent who joins the team in infiltrating a training program for Communist spies behind the Iron Curtain and foiling a planned biowarfare attack on the United States.
Other Trek connections: Herbert F. Solow developed and produced both Star Trek and Mission: Impossible for Desilu. The framing device of the Captain's Log was his idea, and has been used in most Star Trek projects to date.

Space: 1999 Stars Barbara Bain & Nick Tate Goes Board Documentary About Sci-Fi Show’s Legendary Spacecraft
Actress Barbara Bain, star of the British sci-fi series Space: 1999, is preparing to board an upcoming documentary about the Eagle, the famed spacecraft at the heart of the show that ran from 1975-1977.
Bain will appear in The Eagle Has Landed as will Nick Tate, her cast mate from Space: 1999. The documentary includes the participation of several other notable figures: Apollo XVI astronaut Charles Duke Jr., Academy Award-winning visual effects artist Bill George (Blade Runner, Star Trek), and Brian Johnson, the VFX artist on Space: 1999 whose work is said to have influenced Star Wars. The film is being directed and produced by Jeffrey Morris, who also hosts the documentary.
The Eagle Has Landed “explores the cross-generational impact of the iconic vessel” in the series that also starred Martin Landau. According to a press release, the film “showcases never-before-seen archival footage” and will be released in time for the 50th anniversary of Space: 1999’s debut, in 2025.
“Space: 1999 appeared on TV a few short years after the world watched Neil Armstrong take the first steps on the moon,” Morris noted in a statement. “The show’s unforgettable Eagle inspired a generation to envision a future in space and is still doing so decades later. The question we explore is ‘why?’ What is it about this imaginary craft that has captured and held imaginations for nearly 50 years?
Morris’s FutureDude Entertainment is producing the documentary in partnership with Zero Point Zero Production Inc. Anne Marie Gillen is a producer on the project, along with Morris. The film is written by Morris and Fredrick Haugen. Morris is represented by Espada Entertainment.
Space: 1999 ran for a total of 48 episodes, with Bain and Landau in all of them as, respectively, Dr. Helena Russell and Commander John Koenig (the actors were married to each other at the time; they had previously co-starred together in Mission: Impossible).
The show revolved around the denizens of Moonbase Alpha, scientific researchers living on the moon whose existence was threatened by a nuclear explosion, which rocketed the moon out of Earth’s orbit. Tate, an Australian-born actor, played pilot Alan Carter on 42 of the show’s 48 episodes. Originally, his character was to be killed off in the premiere episode, a casualty of the nuclear explosion, but producers Gerry Anderson and Sylvia Anderson liked his work and expanded his role.
“Hovering above the Moon in one of Alpha’s Eagle spacecraft, Alan Carter is an observer to this holocaust, watching helplessly as the Moon spins out into space,” according to a synopsis published by the Catacombs.Space1999.net website. “Sacrificing his only chance to return home, Carter decides to give chase to the runaway Moon, joining his friends on the endless intergalactic journey.”
Tate told the website, “I didn’t have to dig too deeply with this character. Alan Carter was all the things I was as a young man: friendly, happy-go-lucky, someone who loved adventure and accepted a challenge.”
Ian McShane, Joan Collins, and Leo McKern were among actors who appeared in single episodes of Space: 1999.
