Poster advertising the soundtrack to Up the Junction (1968).

The poster belies the fact that it is actually a very thoughtful, non-gratuitous film which deals with the contravertial subject of abortion (which was illegal at the time the book the film was based on was written) and class.

Anneke Wills in The Avengers episode Dressed to Kill.

Terence Stamp in Theroem (1968) again, because…well just look at him.

Gillian Hills in the 1969 ITV adaptation of Alam Garner’s fantastic (and underrated) novel The Owl Service. The series is available on DVD from Network and is definitely worth seeking out.

Gillian Hills is a familiar face from 60s/70s hits such as Blow Up (where she has the dubious honour of the first frontal nude scene in British cinema), A Clockwork Orange and the bizzare and rather nasty Hammer film Demons of the Mind

Juliet Harmer in Adam Adamant Lives! (BBC 1966-7)

Wendy Padbury (Doctor Who, 1968-9, Blood on Satan’s Claw, 1971)

Alexis Kanner as Number 48 in Fall Out, the memorably bonkers final episode of The Prisoner (1967)

Raquel Welch on a cross, shot by Terry O’Neill for the cover of Esquire magazine to publicise the actress’s role in One Million BC (and not published for another 30 years as it was deemed to controversial).
