M, thanks for the interesting personal story! If you have any old snapshots of the two of them you’d be willing to share, send them on to us.
For some time Imogen was an item with an ex-colleague who had bought himself out of the RAF in Gatow, Germany where he was employed in 26 Signals Unit – a listening post of GCHQ. Obviously disenchanted with the work he was doing as a linguist, he then became a part-time contributor to OZ magazine. I forget the guys name but he eventually overdosed on drugs in Morocco, Imogen described him as being “totally different from any of the showbiz people she was familiar with” and was very much in love with him.

rip lovely lady
Jim, thanks for your story. Personal encounters such as this add to our collective knowledge of these beautiful and talented people.
I slightly knew Imogen Hassall, back in 1963 – ’64 when I worked as a barman / waiter at The Opera Tavern in Catherine Street, wc 2 opposite Drury Lane Thatre. My fair Lady had just finished there and The Boys from Saracuise, with Bob Monkhouse had just begun. Imogen used to come into the bar although never alone, always seemed to have been chaprooned by a well presented older gent, much to the male bar staff’s disappointment. She was a breath- taking stunner, but she always managed to give me an enchanting smile. I sometimes used to wonder if she was legally entitled to be on licenced premises and it wasn’t until I discovered that she had died that in fact she was five months older than me. I always got the impression from Imogen that she was highly moral and extremely respectable and so was disappointed to read some of the less than complimentary activities attributted to her, but paper won;t refuse ink.
