Hi JP,
I thought I could do this with addtable2plot, but I hadn't coded a 
column spacing into it (maybe next version). However, this is almost 
what you want, and I'm sure you can work out how to add the lines.

plot(img1~angle, type="o", xlab="Incident angle", ylab="sigma",
  ylim=c(-8,-2),lwd=2,col=8, pch=19,cex=1,axes="false")
box()
lines(img2~angle,lwd=2,type="o", col=1, pch=19,cex=1)
tablerownames<-"Angle\nImage1\nImage2"
mtext(c(tablerownames,
  paste(angle,round(img1,2),round(img2,2),sep="\n")),
  1,line=1,at=c(24.7,angle),cex=0.5)
