Caroline Munro

He died in 2020. Following her marriage, she was less seen. The septuagenarian continued to perform sporadically on camera, primarily in England and often in the horror genre.

As of (her friend) Richard Kiel's passing in 2014, she is the last surviving "named" villain of The Spy Who Loved Me (1977). Curd Jürgens and Milton Reid are also deceased.

Has two daughters with George Dugdale: Georgina Dugdale (born 1990, London) and Iona May Dugdale (born 1994, London).

She turned down an offer to do a Playboy magazine nude spread. In fact, she refused to do any nude work at all and rejected such movie offers as The World Is Full of Married Men (1979) and Force 10 from Navarone (1978) that called for this.

Later 70's and 80's roles included the lowergrade Starcrash (1978), Maniac (1980) and Slaughter High (1985), the last-mentioned written and directed by second husband George Dugdale, whom she married in 1990.

According to her website interview with ZANI, she was not set to appear in Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter (1974) originally, but her schedule worked out and she did. "Kronos" was actually supposed to be a series of films when it was released in 1974. However, it was not well received and the idea was scrapped. However, it remains her favorite film.

More noticeable roles came outside the studio as the slave girl/love interest in The Golden Voyage of Sinbad (1973), the princess in At the Earth's Core (1976), and a lethal Bond girl in the top-notch The Spy Who Loved Me (1977). Her voluptuous looks sustained her for a bit longer but the quality of her roles did not improve with higher visibility.

Phibes Rises Again (1972) which, in turn, led to a Hammer Studios contract and such low-budget spine-tinglers as Dracula A. D.

1972 (1972) and Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter (1974).

One of her many gorgeous photo ads earned her a screen test and a one-year contract at Paramount where she won the role of Richard Widmark's daughter in the comedy/western A Talent for Loving (1969). She first met husband/actor Judd Hamilton filming this movie but they later divorced.

Also in 1969, she became the commercial poster girl for "Lamb's Navy Rum", a gig that lasted ten years. She had no lines as Vincent Price's dead wife in The Abominable Dr.

Decorative bit parts came her way in such films as Casino Royale (1967) and Where's Jack? (1969).

She once sang in her church choir. In 1966, at age 16, she recorded some vocals on the single "Tar and Cement", for EMI, which featured Eric Clapton, Cream drummer Ginger Baker and future Yes guitarist Steve Howe. The producer needed to add a few overdubs. Caroline got the job because her father's friend was the head of Decca Records at the time. She has appeared in two music videos, "Goody Two Shoes" with Adam Ant and "If You Really Want to" with Meat Loaf. In addition, she recorded the single "Pump Me Up" with Gary Numan. Her latest music project is "Wilson Munro", in which she has teamed up with Gary Wilson to record a three-track CD.

Leggy, brunette-maned pin-up actress Caroline Munro was born in 1949 in Windsor, Berkshire, England, and lived in Rottingdean near Brighton where she attended a Roman Catholic convent school. By chance, her mother and a photographer entered her picture in a "Face of the Year" competition for the British newspaper The Evening News and won. This led to modeling chores, her first job being for Vogue Magazine at age 17. She moved to London to pursue top modeling jobs and became a major cover girl for fashion and television commercials while there.
