I would like to announce after a couple of delays that my new website "Re-Introducing Diana Dors" will finally be seeing the light of day in May 2010. The website will compromise of a true and honest biography of the good lady, aswell as a comprehensive film and tv - o graphy. One feature that will also be included in the website will be "Memories of Dors" this for fans and fellow co-workers of Dors to share their remembrances of Dors, so folks I would honoured if any of you had any stories that you would like to share of Diana for the website. Please feel free to PM me. And if any of you are a Facebook user I have a group called "Re-Introducing Diana Dors" with many fans worldwide as members, please feel free to join the group........

Many thanks
Sean

Hello, I am searching for information on Diana Dors career on television. I'm looking to track down details on her appearances on Dixon of Dock Green, Z-Cars, Armchair Theatre, Queenies Castle , All Our Saturdays and Just William to name a few. And I'm also interested in learning more about her appearances in the untransmitted televison series for Re-Diffusion "The Unusal Miss Mulberry" and The Inquistors for LWT. If anyone could help in regards to where or who I need to contact, or even if the have an address for the archives I would be greatful. And to continue previous requests I would be intreseted in hearing from any of you that may have worked or known Diana, please feel free to PM me.....

And finally if any of you are members of Facebook, I have created a group detailing my new website "Re-Introducing Diana Dors" I'm hoping to have the website up and running by May 2010. So please if anyone is able to assist I would be extremely grateful

Many thanks, in advance....

... aka Star Sex (Europe: English title: reissue title)
... aka The David Galaxy Affair (UK: alternative title)

as Jenny Stride with husband Alan Lake and she erm erm contributed the theme tune.

Maybe the mortgage was needed paying.

There's a lot of dignity in that, isn't there? Going out like a raspberry ripple.

I think the official line on making that film was purely to keep an eye on Mr Lake,as he had been reduced to filming these sex comedies with the likes of Mary et all. And at the time his drinking was out of control, so he was at a fairly vunerable state. But I guess most British stars starred in these crap films, thankfully they've been consigned to the dungeon, never to be seen again. But I guess the only high-light of the film is the theme tune.............

They are around to see, not consigned to the dungeon.

"Alfred Hitchcock Presents" The Sorcerer's Apprentice (1962)

Not broadcast until it was syndicated, as it was deemed unsuitable.

Also, that it definitely WOULDN'T give you cancer or anything...

He was probably too distracted in his obsession with the mink bikini

Happy Birthday, btw, cully

Many thanks for uploading chaps, Diana starred in two of Hitchcocks TV programmes The sorcerers Apprentice being the first, and the second being Run for Doom starring alongside John Saxon and Scott Brady. If anyone could help with supplying contacts in tracking down infomation about Dors TV programmes I would be most grateful....

Maybe Diana Dors was in three Hitchcocks. I know I saw her in an hour one with John Gavin.

Okay, I found it. Run for Doom had Gavin, not Saxon. Scott Brady like you said was also in it.

Well this is my first post and well your never guess who I'm a huge fan of

Well I love Diana, I'm only 24 so I missed out on seeing her on TV and stuff coz obviously I wasn't born, but I love her films and I watch clips of her TV appearences on youtube. Yield to the Night is the best film ever. One thing that always bothers me is that Diana is seen as nothing more then a Marilyn clone but in reality Diana was acting first, it just bugs me and I wish I could announce it on the news or something.
