“There was always something exotic and possibly louche about Fielding. You never felt that she had skimped on mascara, eye-shadow or lipstick, or that her hair was necessarily all her own in its chaotic and often strangely unkempt manifestation … she was not immune to the appeal of drink, drugs and psychotherapy, but survived all these brushes to come out fighting, and as huskily cheerful and optimistic as ever.”
From The Guardian’s obituary for eccentric stage, television and screen actress, possessor of the campiest, poshest crushed-velvet voice of all time and "England's first lady of the double entendre", the truly singular Miss Fenella Fielding OBE (17 November 1927 – 11 September 2018) who died on this day six years ago aged 90. Completely illustrative of her wayward career: Italian art cinema visionary Federico Fellini desperately wanted her for one of his movies – and Fielding turned him down because she was committed to doing a play in Chichester! Fielding spent years perfecting her craft and performed the works of Ibsen, Chekhov, Shakespeare and Oscar Wilde onstage, and yet in the popular imagination she’s best remembered for portraying the slinky Morticia Addams-like Valeria Watt in smutty low-brow British comedy Carry on Screaming (1966). Ah, the vagaries of fame! However you cut it, Fenella Fielding is the United Kingdom’s closest equivalent to Tallulah Bankhead. (One persistent myth to dispel: Fielding didn’t dub the voice for Anita Pallenberg’s performance as The Black Queen in Barbarella (1968) – that was her peer Joan Greenwood).

Born on this day: fiercely glamorous and eccentric stage, radio, television and screen actress, possessor of the campiest, poshest crushed-velvet voice of all time, false eyelash enthusiast and "England's first lady of the double entendre", the truly singular Miss Fenella Fielding OBE (17 November 1927 – 11 September 2018). Completely illustrative of Fielding’s wayward 67-year career: Italian art cinema visionary Federico Fellini desperately wanted her for one of his movies – and Fielding turned him down because she was committed to doing a play in Chichester! Fielding spent years perfecting her craft and performed the works of Ibsen, Chekhov, Shakespeare, Shaw, Pinter and Oscar Wilde onstage, and yet in the popular imagination she’s best remembered for portraying the slinky Morticia Addams-like Valeria Watt in smutty low-brow British comedy Carry on Screaming (1966). Ah, the vagaries of fame! However you cut it, Fenella Fielding is the United Kingdom’s closest equivalent to Tallulah Bankhead. (One persistent myth to dispel: Fielding didn’t dub the voice for Anita Pallenberg’s performance as The Black Queen in Barbarella (1968) – that was her peer, Joan Greenwood). Pictured: young Fielding at her most "come hither."
