Was she a villain in one of the Superman (Christopher Reeve) movies as well with Terrence Stamp?

Just 3 TV channels existed when Servalan was first on our screens - and BBC2 wasn't up to much if I remember correctly. This was proper boxset TV for the time.

As a child we sat in a beer garden in Sussex (probably after my dad was playing cricket) and this odd threesome were having a drink together.

and the bloke with the beard you used to do fingerbobs

Rick fingerbobs Jones also known for this , much sampled, bit of mad 70s jazz/pop.

The drum break is the last few seconds Paid in Full - the Eric B/Coldcut/Rakim track.

Ah Blakes Seven. The ultimate beige and brown early 1970's low budget TV Sci-Fi. Star Wars it wasn't...

From what I recall Blake was more of a Woodwork Teacher than a Galactic Rebel and his character eventually got binned so the morally dubious but far more fun Avon could run the Rebellion.

For some reason this included having several free and frank Ugandan Discussions with Servalan. Lucky Boy! :lolol:

Think the lead decided he was a better actor and merited better than Blake's 7.

She did a nude scene in the film White Mischief but unfortunately because she didn't have the Servalan haircut at the time it just didn't have the same effect.

Is she the Welsh Doris from Hi-Di-Hi?

I think she had a restaurant in Lewes a few years ago.
