I posted recently a photograph I came across online that I'd not seen before. It was of Shirley Jones and her then husband, Jack Cassidy, together with her stepson David Cassidy. Turns out it wasn't the only photo of hers I'd not clocked before. Here she is, probably taken high up in the Hollywood Hills, on a diving board. Which got me thinking; you know what's coming next don't you; that's right, and purely in the name of research I hasten to add, I then began to find more photographs of other starlets taken at their local lido...
Barbara Stanwyck
Rita Hayworth
Marilyn Monroe
Phoebe Cates
Deidre de Peyer
I think now would be a good time to stop (after all, I do have a reputation to think of).

If you've been affected by any of the content in this blog post I would strongly urge you to take a cold shower.

This just in: how on earth I'd missed this last time is beyond me. Britt Eland and that bloke who sang Maggie May.
