CAN YOU ANSWER THIS? PLUS REMEMBERING ACTRESS KATE O'MARA ON HER BIRTHDAY


TWO QUESTIONS have been set with the rare still over at the FACEBOOK PCASUK FAN PAGE , with a THIRD question, causing some head scratching, for sure. Feel free to pop over and have a go! Answer later . .
 

TODAY MARKS the late Kate O'Mara's birthday.... Her earliest television appearances, includes guest roles in '#DangerMan', 'Adam Adamant Lives!', 'The Saint', 'Z-Cars' and '#TheAvengers'. Look carefully and you'll spot her in the crowd of ale swiggers in Cushing's / Hammer films CAPTAIN CLEGG. She also worked with Cushing in the film, #CORRUPTION and in 1970, she appeared in two Hammer films films THE VAMPIRE LOVERS and 'The Horror of Frankenstein'.
 

IN THE FORMER, she had an erotically charged scene with #IngridPitt, in which O'Mara was meant to be seduced; the two women were left laughing on set, however, as Pitt's fangs kept falling into O'Mara's cleavage. O'Mara's work in 'The Vampire Lovers' impressed Hammer enough for them to offer her a contract, which she turned down, fearful of being typecast! 


IN BETWEEN APPEARANCES in the BBC 'Doctor Who', she played Caress Morell in the American primetime soap opera 'Dynasty'. After returning to the UK, she was cast as another scheming villain, Laura Wilde, in the BBC soap 'Howards' Way' (1989–90). Kate O'Mara passed on 30th March 2014 aged 74.
