Date Posted: 02:42:43 08/16/05 Tue In reply to: Jon 's message, "Tales of the Unexpected" on 17:07:58 08/15/05 Mon >Okay, who has the Hammer film with her in it? I.I.N.M., it was Love Thy Neighbour - a film adaptation of a British TV sitcom series of the same name. Ms. Goldie had a rather small bit part in that one too (as a "white bride"). The director? A certain Mr. John Robins (apparently, she was one of his favorite actresses at the time, judging from that plus all her TBHS appearances). You may want to try with some people in Britain; this movie was put out on DVD there (but not here). But as for that Tales of the Unexpected, er, cameo: I believe that was her most recent work; there was nothing past 1981 in her filmography. As you said, a shame. And she was on record, too: The LP Benny Hill: Words and Music (a.k.a. This Is Benny Hill) had a track called "Interview (Featuring Lesley Goldie)" on it. I figured that it was from one of Mr. Hill's 1970-71 black-and-white shows, being as I never saw it on any of the half-hour syndicated episodes shown in the States. And I was right: As clearly seen in the first A&E Complete & Unadulterated set (dealing with the years 1969-71), the whole interview sketch originated from the "Uplift With Humphrey Bumphrey" section of Benny's Feb. 24, 1971 show - the last of the three B&W's he did whilst British color TV technicians were on strike. Lesley ostensibly impersonated British chat-show hostess Joan Bakewell (indeed, her interviewer was captioned on the screen as "Joanna Bakewell-Tart"), talking with Mr. Hill's hippie poet St. John Bossom. This was the one which ended with his poem about a mother who presented her soldier son with a forbidden pudding in an Army jail (and him cracking up at one point as he was reading it).
