Fab career in TV ... mainly as Romana in Doc Who,
but she also did some movies... even one Hammer movie !

She seemed to disappear from the scene though,
prob to concentrate on illustrating books?

Not seen a lot of her since the Dr Who period .

    She is married to the renowned atheist and scientist Richard Dawkins. She sometimes does audio Dr Who CD's for Big Finish.

    Please don't scare me like that OP. Until Amy Pond came along, she was Dr Who dream girl. I've got a signed photo of her somewhere.

    She was introduced to her hubby by the late, great Douglas Adamsl

    OP, the way you just have your thread titles as someone's name makes it look like a death announcement. Can you please give us all a clue as to what your threads are actually about in just a little more detail so we don't panic?

    Indeed though when I said I thought she had passed away I meant years ago. It was then I looked her up and realised that it was Mary Tamm who had passed away. She was also Romana in Dr Who

    You are far too imaginative, if it had been that the thread
    would have been titled Lalla Ward RIP

    I thought she died years ago anyway.

    into book illustration and eventually married the charming
    Richard Dawkins the famous scientist and atheist

    I was always so jealous of Tom Baker. He talks fondly of her in his autobiography.

    You're thinking of Mary Tamm, who died in 2012 who played Romana first, also appeared in Brookside.
