Staying with acting, when we're all busy, busy, busy at weekends, so it's easier to offer shorter bite-size, postings, this concerns Marilyn, and the words that tell us more about her life...

I have been haunted by the ghost of Marilyn. Ever since I learned that my father-in-law had a family which he had kept a secret for many years from the family I had married into... And even when confronted by the facts, he still denied it completely.

I am haunted by Marilyn's tragedy in many more ways than one...
