I remember her vividly as Irene Adler too - made quite an impression on my teenaged self. Such a glamourous lady.

Even the most beautiful have to take their leave. She was very good in Hell House. A genuinely chilling movie. RIP Gayle.

I remember her best from the 2-part Return of the Saint episode "Collision Course" which I've always thought was one of the better stories of that series.

RIP Gayle.

Very sad to hear this as only recently saw those episodes of Return of the Saint and her appearance in a Tales of the Unexpected.

I only came across her in the last few years and really thought she had a huge screen presence and such a naturally beautiful smile. The most attractive women of her era have so much more panache.

There is a recent photo of her on Twitter - the ageing process can be quite sad but as with all actors, her beauty will live on through her many previous appearances.
