Susannah in suspenders.......
Thought that might get your attention.
Fans of the 1969 movie 'Battle of Britain' might like to know that, at long last, it's being released on DVD (Region 2) in widescreen format on 24 May 2004.
Which means that famous hotel bedroom scene will look better than ever!

Kate who?
Winslet? Moss? O'Mara (surely not)? Or that common woman who was on Blue Peter, perhaps?

Bl@@dy Hell! I get home, having recovered from a rugby distracting letch over the goregeous new barmaid in the Builders... and you lot get me all hot and bothered again.
Can you do a screen grab FL? Or shall I go and put the video on...
(PS: Kate R100 Lips Winslet...? Nah...)

Kate Adie was the BBC's glamouflaged war reporter who always seemed to appear first on the scene of any conflict. The joke being that if you ever found yourself on the same flight as Kate, get the next flight home!
She left her £150K per year job on the eve of GW2 last year after 34 years working for the BBC.
And she looked pretty good in publicity photos taken earlier in her career - quite like Bardot when she was about 19! She rose to fame by covering the 1980 Iranian embassy siege live, without any script, to a huge TV audience. She also covered the Malvinas war, Tianemen Square, GW1, Bosnia..........certainly rather better than CNN, Fox or Sky did!

BEags,
Did you catch Susannah in "Holby City" last year?
She made quite a few appearances as a Hospital Director of some sort....growing old but still showing the signs that she was a real looker (in a Catherine Deneuve sort of way).
Not quite in the same league, Sharon Maughan (remember the "Gold Blend" ads) is in the show too - still doesn't scrub up too bad either!

To be honest, I always found that scene embarrasing. As a ten year old I felt it got in the way of the action. Then, when I was old enough to appreciate it, I realised her make-up and hair was all wrong. Definitely more 1968 than 1940. In fact, I can forgive using the wrong Mark Spitfire far more readily than the wrong era of fashion and beauty.
I think Mrs Pike from "Dad's Army" would have been more authentic.

HUH????
Well, as an 18 year old Flight Cadet from all-male Cranwell, I found that scene of very great interest when I went to the premiere in Nottingham!
I found the 1960s glass door, electric bell push and up-and-over garage door at 'Mr Susannah' s digs far more irritating than the wrong type of life preserver or whatever.....
