Here is a rare clip from the ‘lost’ British print of Village of the Damned (The American print later added special FX to the children’s eyes). This clip is a copy of the original British version and unadulterated.

I played the role of Alph 17 Clone (my twin sister playing Alpha 16) in the popular ATV Sci-Fi series TIMESLIP written by Ruth Boswell.

Pantomime

I performed in many pantomimes. From playing a Munchkin in The Wizard of Oz, The Slave of the Ring in Aladdin, The Good Fairy in Dick Whittington, Jack and the Beanstalk and The Sleeping Beauty. I switched from being a ‘goodie’ to play the role of the ‘baddie’ Carabosse in several productions of the Sleeping Beauty.

While playing Good Fairy I painted oil sketch portraits of fellow actors between matinée and evening performances.

Between matinée and evening performances I painted little oil sketch portraits of my fellow actors. This newspaper publicity photo shows me with Robert Aldous and Richard Murdoch.
