[QUOTE="Barbara Fan, post: 368070, member: 21"] Gosh! Venice was quick, 3 scenes in total and in 2 epiosdes, 2 with dialogue With hindsight, its obvious that Nolly isnt well - she has gained weight and has a very swollen and distended abdomen and If Im right i think she was diagnosed with stomach cancer or undergoing tests for it , prior to her filming I found it really sad that this was the end of her stint in Crossroads - I also noted that the scene at the end when she is on the bridge waving to Jill and Adam, its none other than Jack Barton along side her The guy who wanted her sacked and gone! Id have pushed him over board!! I have basically watched nothing else in the DVD player since February and ive loved it - all of it and will do a rewatch in time Like Mel, i didnt see too many shaky sets (tea pots yes) did see the occasional boom mike come into view but considereing they were filming 4 or 5 epiosdes in a week I thought they did really well Some of the cast and acting were a bit ropey but you get that in any soap (Corrie now springs to mind) but I will miss Meg, Jill, Miss Diane, David, Benny and co It was great seeing other faces appear who went onto do other things in later life. I have renewed my admiration for Noele Gordon and all that she achieved pre, during and post Crossroads She was a talented lady, who was first woman ever to be on Colour TV, first to interview a PM in Office and have her own magazine chat show long before breakfast TV She was a producer, a director and an executive at ATV back in the 50s and also studied Film and TV at NY University - she also had the gift of the gab, was eloquent and could hold her own on any chat show. She also continued to defend the show after she was sacked. I will never understand why they sacked her!! I take my hat off to her, and she died far too soon RIP Nolly - sadly missed, wont be forgotten [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/lPyHPHg.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
