Glynis Barber, 1st Jane series (all the best bits)
 

All the best bits from the first BBC Jane series. It may not be the best thing ever put on TV, but it's pretty damn close. Why is this not on DVD? Credit to the original uploader.

For those who don't know, this was originall a British World War Two Era Cartoon, that basically focused on Jane (Whom I think was an agent, or possibly just a female army member) losing her clothes, sometimes being stripped by people, other times by incidents. The cartoons did show subtle nudity (bottoms, undetailed breasts etc.)

Jane was actually based on a real woman; model Chrystabel Leighton-Porter (she died in 2000). In addition to the comic strips, there was a 1949 Jane movie; the Adventures of Jane (starring Chrystabel), the famous BBC TV series; Jane and the sequel; Jane in the Desert (both starring Glynis Barber), and a late 1980's Holywood film; Jane and the Lost City (starring Kirstin Hughes).

The real Jane; Chrystabel Leighton-Porter. I used to have a few clips from the 1949 film. I'll see if I can find them.

Jane's "strip for victory", on VE day. The artist; Norman Pett, started the Jane comic in 1932, originally using his wife, and then, Chrystabel Leighton-Porter, as his model. After the war, Chrystabel had a music hall act in which she did a striptease as Jane.

There are at least two books about Jane; A Pinup at War (pictured), and; Jane at War (collecting all of the war time comic strips). The comic strip had several different artists, and continued until the 1990's. Anyone have the books?

A rare clip from the 1949 film; The Adventures of Jane. Chrystabel Leighton-Porter (born Chrystabel Drury), was very pretty, but I think Glynis Barber does the character (and the EUF reactions), much better.

BRAVO !
 

THANKS FOR THE G.B. AND JANE VIDS. THOSE ARE RARE FINDS. I APPRECIATE YOU POSTING

THEM. HOPE THERE'S MORE OF GLYNIS BARBER AROUND. BEST REGARDS...

My girlfriend at the time chose to do a thesis on the Jane comic strips whilst we were at university. I always liked to think her interest meant they were at least a bit of a turn on for her (which then was for me), but she consistently denied this. Obviously when I first found out about the content of the comics she'd picked to study I fantasised about getting her to recreate a few of them, but my suggestions never went anywhere :(

She had a book of collected strips, but I don't remember the title. I've tried to find the comics on the web a few times but never had much luck beyond that VE day one already posted ... maybe I should get hold of one of the books off amazon..

Jane at War, is out of print (but usually turns up on ebay). Jane; a Pinup at War, is currently in print, but doesn't seem to focus much on the comic strip. There is another book called; The Misadventures of Jane, currently in print, and it's supposed to reprint all of the war time strips.
