I’ve been watching the outstanding Brit TV show Sex Education — which, after a shaky start in the first episode-and-a-half, has turned into must-watch stuff for me. (I’m currently just into Season 2 of 3.)
But this isn’t a review of the show. Rather, I want to focus on [sic] a couple of the totties who star in the show.
Here’s Maeve, played by Franco-Brit actress Emma Mackey, as she appears in the show (as the school slut):


You can see that she’s pretty, but of course the character hides her true beauty:





Looks like a combination of Françoise Hardy and Brigitte Bardot, n’est-ce pas?
And then there’s tomorrow’s vision…
In a life cut tragically short at age 24, Martha Mansfield nevertheless stood out by virtue of her self-belief and ambition, resulting in a stage career, a Ziegfeld Girl, and appearances in several silent movies. Oh, and her beauty.





Incidentally, if you read her bio at the above link, does her death not strike you as… suspicious?
Fern Britton’s ex-husband Phil Vickery was seen kissing her best friend in the street in new images taken leaving a fancy London hotel on Wednesday.
The TV chef, 61, was pictured passionately kissing Lorraine Stanton, 58, who has been close friends with presenter Fern for years, in pictures obtained by The Sun.
According to the publication, the new couple were on a date and were seen leaving the hotel together with overnight bags in their hands.
Some “date”.
As these two people are somewhat obscure Brit TV celebrities (certainly very few of my Murkin Readers will know who they are), here’s a pic of Fern ‘n Phil in happier times:

...much happier times:

And Fern, in the same photoshoot:

But let me not be unkind. She has lost a lot of that weight, recently:

Not at all bad for 65…
Here’s a quick quiz. State the reasons for your choice in Comments.

In the 1930s, Dorothy Flood was considered one of the most beautiful faces in show business — but hey, don’t take my word for it; judge for yourselves:



Then, after having spent her teenage years on Broadway, appearing in shows with established stars like Ruby Keeler, she became a Ziegfeld Girl — and met Ziegfeld’s “house” photographer, Alfred Cheney Johnson… and the rest became history.






Johnson is said to have remarked that Dorothy Flood was the most beautiful woman he’d ever photographed — and considering who and how many women he’d snapped, that’s no small compliment.
Gorgeous.
