REMEMBERING PRUDENCE HYMAN ON HER BIRTHDAY TODAY

She was the subject of our #MonsterMonday requested Gallery yesterday and today... we celebrate her BIRTHDAY! Today we remember, Prudence Hyman, the actress and dancer who played Barbara Shelly's alter ego in Hammer films, 'The Gorgon'. Not the easiest of roles to play, especially when you have six pounds of wig and writhing rubber serpents balancing on your head. Hammer couldn't quite pull it off when it came to the reveal, but Prudence did a grand job, petrifying Peter Cushing and setting her place in stone, in the Hammer films Walk of Fame. Happy Birthday Prudence!

MONSTERMONDAY : THIS WEEKS REQUEST HAMMER FILMS : THE GORGON

It's MONDAY. It's MONSTERMONDAY! Every week, we ask you to request a 'monster' for us to feature in a gallery at our website. This MONDAY, it's a request from TRACEY WOODWARD from Birmingham, UK.Tracey says, "Pictures please of the lady with the Snake head! And Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. And my favourite Dr Who too, Patrick Troughton! Did you know the actress who played the Gorgon in this Hammer film, was a ballet dancer, Prudence Hymen? She was really beautiful when she was a young dancer. I wonder why Hammer picked her?? Thank you in advance. Best wishes, keep up the great work, Tracey"....



Thank YOU Tracey. Here's your gallery AND there's much more in an extension of this feature posted at the FACEBOOK FAN PAGE... in the next hour. If YOU have a REQUEST for a MonsterMonday, drop us a line!

Well, her she is in all her glory... Prudence Hyman, in her dancing days...and in a reference photograph belonging to the make up artist on the film, Roy Ashton. I am not sure why Hammer choose Prudence, but I do have some recollection of Roy telling me, it was something the props guys had in mind, in connection with how the Gorgon would move on camera...she had to float and have grace. So, they hired a dancer! There is for those who are not aware of it, a whole back story of misfires and trial and error, in regard of the Gorgon's look in this film...and those troublesome snakes...!

THE PASSING OF TERRY WOGAN KB DL 1938 - 2016 : PETER CUSHING LAST WOGAN SHOW APPEARANCE

I am extremely sad to hear about to hear about the passing of television and radio broadcaster TERRY WOGAN. A giant in the history of the BBC, the face of Children In Need, Eurovision..so much more. An all around very nice guy. Peter Cushing appeared on his BBC tv talk show many times. Five, I think? Terry had enormous respect for Peter and it came through in the interviews. Wogan made time for Peter in his later interviews, never rushing him, patronising....just kind and patience. Another institution, sadly leaves us. God bless Terry.

 Peter Cushing's fourth appearance on Wogan on 

the 24th February 1988
