Raquel Welch - Gone for ever

Post by Uncle Al »

Raquel Welch, actress and Hollywood sex symbol, dead at 82

I first saw her in the film Fantastic Voyage.
She turned many male heads where ever she went.
She spent three Christmases touring with Bob Hope as
he visited American armed forces overseas.

May she Read In Peace :(

When I was a boy, Raquel Welch was absolutely the first name in glamorous actresses.

They played a splendid clip from a 1970 BBC radio interview this morning, in which she told a supercilious interviewer to his face that he was being supercilious.

Raquel Welch was born in 1940. When Fantastic Voyage and One Million Years BC
appeared in 1966, she was about 26 years old. At that time she was a bit glamorous.

And unlike so many starlets, Ms. Welch managed to retain that glamour and vivaciousness throughout her long career. She was a true gem in a field largely of coal.
