The incredibly sexy Servalan from Blake's Seven. Quoted as saying 'I'd been a masturbatory fantasy for an entire generation of young men'. I wouldn't argue with that. The blend of short hair, slinky dresses and evil disposition was a heady mix to teenagers back in the late Seventies and early Eighties.

Lindsay Wagner makes little distinction between her life as an actress, advocate, mother or author. What unites these various parts is a commitment through her work and her personal life to exploring and advancing human potential.

Ask Kate Winslet what she likes about any of her characters, and the word "ballsy" is bound to pop up at least once.
