Life's a Sunset Beach
Article Abstract:
Actress Lesley-Anne Down does not believe that she is particularly talented, but will always play each part to the best of her ability. A very successful career was predicted for her after she appeared in 'Upstairs, Downstairs' in the 1970s, but she is now appearing in the US soap opera 'Sunset Beach.' She does not have a very high opinion of this show, and is surprised that she attracts so much attention from fans. She is happy with the way her career has turned out, and does not really regret that she did not capitalize on her success in 'Upstairs, Downstairs.'

Life is a one-woman show
Article Abstract:
Marriage can be extremely disappointing, according to actress Sian Phillips. She has been married twice, but now prefers her own company. She even attributes a period of relative obscurity to the fact that she was overshadowed by her first husband, Peter O'Toole. She has recently undergone a course of Cognitive Assertiveness Training, and now feels much more self-confident. She is very happy, and never feels lonely. She has recently been involved in 'Marlene,' a one-woman tribute to Marlene Dietrich.
