Default Felicity Kendal - The Mayfly and the Frog (1966)

I mentioned yesterday that I'd come across an account on You tube that had a stash of old TV stuff from the past, so here is one of them. This is a drama from The Wednesday Play, which ran from 1964 to 1970, and was a ground breaking anthology series in it's time. This episode is called The Mayfly and the Frog (1966), and involves no less than a very young Felicity Kendal (yes, her from 70's sitcom The Good Life). I doubt many people know that Felicity actually did a nude scene in her acting career, but she did, and it was in this drama. She played a girl whose scooter is damaged by John Gielgud's Rolls Royce and is so enraged she breaks into his house in order to get compensation for the damage, refusing to go until she does. What involves is a clash of class, but also a developing love between Gielgud's flippant and crusty millionaire and Kendal's bolshy, perky and unmaterialistic biker. It's actually quite an enjoyable watch, but her crucial scene involving Felicity comes at about 41 mins into the drama, when she runs off in the house and Gielgud goes looking for her, only to find that she's stripped off and lying naked in his indoor pond! Nudity was quite rare on TV in the 1960's - the earliest nude was in anthology series Festival in 1963, and that was accidental! - but you get to see Felicity topless lying back, and her bottom when she sits up and swims over towards Gielgud. You also get to see brief breast shots during her talk with him, as Gielgud refuses to leave when she wants to get out, before his servant brings in a towel for her to wrap round. It may not be explicit stuff compared to modern standards, but I'm sure many of you would be interested to see Felicity in the buff as she was starting out in her acting career. Oh, and I've slowed it at the end for those who wished a better look at Miss Kendall. Enjoy.
