A Special Thanks must go to contributing editor William Brown for submitting these photos and information on each of these actors / actresses. Many of them were regulars and some were actually guest stars. I have added links to the Internet Movie Database where I could find them. Hope you can find many of those stars you've been wondering about and maybe a few you hadn't thought of. If you don't find what you are looking for, fear not. This section will continue to expand. Thanks again to William Brown, who wrote all of the information. I have also taken this section and put all of the entries in alphabetical order. If you are looking for someone specific, simply place your cursor on the links on the right hand side of the page. A caption will pop up letting you know which names that link will take you to. Enjoy!

Lovely Jilliane Foot

Jilliane Foot

IMDB Entry

And Jillianne Foot, from her only TBHS appearance on May 30, 1978 (here, from the interview sketch where she played straight woman to Benny as songwriter Marvin Lubtisch in "The South Blank Show" parody). Her name was misspelled "Jilliane" Foot in the end credits of that show. I'm not sure whether or not she's related to Moira Foot; if anyone knows, I'd be glad to hear.


Lovely Moira Foot

Moira Foot (b.1953)

IMDB Entry

The lovely Moira Foot, seen here from the Feb. 18, 1976 "Bonnie and Clyde" parody; was also on the Sept. 24, 1975 edition. Other credits include the role of Miss Thorpe in three 1975 episodes of Are You Being Served?, and as Denise Laroque on the Britcom 'Allo, 'Allo in 1988-89.

IMDB Entry

From the April 25, 1984 "Hot Shoe Show" sketch, here's another Hill one-timer, Andrew Francis.


Lovely Liz Fraser

Liz Fraser (b.1933)

IMDB Entry

The legendary Carry On actress Liz Fraser, in her only Thames TBHS appearance in the "Lower Tidmarsh Fire Brigade" sketch from 12/23/70. She'd been on his late 1950's shows, usually in sketches with Mr. Hill, his co-writer Dave Freeman, and Patricia Hayes, in which the girls played "dolly-birds" and the guys played "yobs."


Lovely Kay Frazer

Lovely Kay Frazer

Kay Frazer (b. 1949)

IMDB Entry

And Kay Frazer, who at the time of her initial TBHS appearances in 1970-71 was a member of The Young Generation dancing and singing troupe (as was Roger Finch, page one). From Top: from her first show on Dec. 23, 1970 (apologies for the typesetting on the far left), Below that: from Dec. 22, 1971. Was also in the "Supermarket Ballet" from March 24, 1971, and on her last show on Dec. 5, 1973, the "Band in the Park" series of dance routines.

At Bottom: both from Dec. 5, 1973, her last show. I neglected to mention that her working relationship with Mr. Hill dated back to not only prior to his first Thames show, but also prior to the existence of Thames itself. She played "Fairy" in the 1964 Rediffusion-London production of Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" where Benny played Bottom. (Also in that production, was Miss Eira Heath as Hippolyta, and early Thames years [uncredited] bit player Arthur Hewlett as Snug; might that explain Miss Heath's involvement in the first Thames series of TBHS?) Unfortunately, the only Spotlight pics of Ms. Frazer I saw were from the Spring 1965 edition, not long after that "Midsummer" production; didn't see anything of her in any early 1970's editions which would've counted for something.

Lovely Sharon Fussey

Lovely Sharon Fussey

Sharon Fussey

IMDB Entry

Two pics of Sharon Fussey: (top) from a headshot originally published in a late 1970's edition of The Spotlight, and (bottom) from the Dec. 26, 1978 "Holiday Time: Dimton on Sea" sketch. At the time of her (uncredited) appearance here, she was a part of the dance troupe "Sam's Set" (choreographed by Samantha Stevens, qv), and made headlines in the British press when she and three other members of the troupe (Caroline Sargeant, Sandra Hamilton, and one Erica Ludlow who would later return to the show as Erica Lynley) refused to wear the skimpy bikini attire that, as early as that date, was already becoming standard on TBHS. In Sharon's case, Sue Upton stepped up to wear the particular bikini in question, while Ms. Fussey and the other Sam's Set girls in question (none of whom, with the sole exception of Erica, ever appeared on the show again) remained fully clothed. Her film credits include The Stud.


Lovely Kerry Gallagher

Lovely Kerry Gallagher

Kerry Gallagher

IMDB Entry

Kerry Gallagher, in two shots from the May 27, 1985 "Carmen" musical number (she played the title role). Her credits include an appearance in a 1997 episode of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and a regular role on a mid-1990's children's TV show called Riding High. The Spotlight (London) casting directory showed her height as 5' 8".

John Gallant

IMDB Entry

Stuntman John Gallant, in four pics, all from his only TBHS appearance on Jan. 26, 1977: (top) from the "man-on-the-street interview" section of the "Sum Awards" sketch; the remaining vidcaps from the New Avengers parody where he doubled for: (second) Benny as Steed, (third) Jackie Wright(!) as Gambit, and (fourth) Reflections singer Linda Robinson as Purdie. Among his credits included stunt work in the 1969 James Bond movie On Her Majesty's Secret Service (the only Bond film to star George Lazenby as 007).
