an era when a fat munter was a statistical anomaly. Even the Plain Janes were better back then.

what passes for a pretty woman today is probably three stone heavier and with a brain-full of toxic feminist ideology.

Raquel.....we will never see the likes of her again.

Kayla did Anfield & Old Trafford

Back in the late seventies my cousin worked on the Muppet show as an extra, each week they had a major Hollywood guest star. I asked him he was the best and worse.

The best was Roger Moore a real gentleman who talked to anybody and was happy to sign autographs.

The worst by common consent was Raquel Welch, a real diva only he didn't use that word. No one was allowed to talk to her or approach her she hid in her trailer and didn't mix. She had everyone on the set including the director scared of their own shadows.

I suppose he poor attitude can be blamed on her own treatment, when you look like she did no doubt she had plenty of #Metoo moments from grubby men when she was starting out.

It's funny how some women are labeled by the media as being "strong" when really they are just bully's with power who got bullied when they were younger. Joan Crawford and Better Davies were like that as well.

A pity that these actresses didn't use their power to stand up for the more vulnerable, Crawford was well know for sacking younger actresses if she thought they would upstage her, so much for the sisterhood.

Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

Raquel, Ursula & Julie, a schoolboys tri-tissue dream.

RIP

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

She will always be that cave girl to me.

Was there ever a more iconic glamorous image?

Her film career didn't really go anywhere, probably because she was just too Rachel Welch.

strange thing is, they are very similar.
often mix 'em up.
ursula edges it (Dr.No & that bikini)
