I prefer some of the older stars such as Ann Sothern.

Ingrid Bergman.

Whatever happened to Linda Hayden , one of the sexiest actresses of the 70's?
Another Hammer girl who starred alongside Christopher Lee in 'Taste The Blood Of Dracula' (1970).
She seemed to get her gear off in many films including 'Confessions From A Holiday Camp'.
Her face always reminded me of a young Diana Dors.

I never found Diana Dors sexy in the slightest....always blowsy, even when still quite young, peroxided to within an inch of her life, and tarty with it...(although that was her typecasting, granted)....a caricature of a sexy woman, rather than a sexy woman in fact.
Or is it just me...

Bit of a Bay Window, what??

IIRC Linda Hayden married a wealthy chap and went off to raise a family. She did a few bits of telly in the 80s. IMdB lists her last appearance to date in an episode of THE BILL in 1997. However, I recently saw her on satellite in a short recent inteview for The Horror Channel.

No - it is not just you, In fact,you hit it on the nail when you said:"A caricature of a sexy woman,rather than a sexy woman in fact."

I am special. The heavens always open for me.

Despite your last sentence and in regards to my reply to Penfold,I thought Linda Hayden oozed sex appeal without effort. Mercilessly had her throat cut by Wolf Kahler in The Boys from Brazil.

Could not agree more not sexy at all, trying far too hard in fact. Compared for example to the stunning beauty of Madeline Smith

Now you're talking....I'm somewhat surprised by the agreement (thus far) with my comments on Ms Dors....I thought I'd be dodging bricks....
The one thing about her I did cherish was the story of her opening a village fete, in her early pre-name change era, when a flustered vicar had to introduce her to the crowd....and now I can't tell you the punchline, there may be ladies present...

Bit of a Bay Window, what??

I don't watch TV so don't know but the last "cinematic" thing i recall her doing was for the special features on BLOOD ON SATAN'S CLAW in which she played Angel Blake,what a misnoma,the little minx!

I agree with Penfold's comments on Diana Dors (although I think she's a fairly decent actress), and his sentence - "a caricature of a sexy woman"- could apply to many actresses today. Foremost in my mind, to fit that category:
Elizabeth Shue, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and (worst of the worst) Britney Murphy.

I've only encountered one person who didn't like Ingrid Bergman. He was tri-syllabic on the subject: "OVERRATED". Whatever that meant.

Here's a mini-homage.........
(regards Woody Guthrie, Roberto Rossellini...)
"Ingrid Bergman, Ingrid Bergman,
Let´s go make a picture
On the island of Stromboli, Ingrid Bergman

Ingrid Bergman, you´re so perty,
You´d make any mountain quiver
You´d make my fire fly from the crater
Ingrid Bergman

This old mountain it´s been waiting
All ist life for you to work it
For your hand to touch the hardrock,
Ingrid Bergman, Ingrid Bergman

If you´ll walk across my camera,
I will flash the world your story,
I will pay you more than money, Ingrid Bergman

Not by pennies dimes nor quarters,
But with happy sons and daughters,
And they´ll sing around Stromboli,
Ingrid Bergman",
