She is regarded as one of the most prominent sex symbols of Hollywood of all time. In the 1950s and the 1960s, she was often referred to as the Cockney blonde bombshell because of her London accent, blonde hair, and sex appeal. Besides ‘Goldfinger’, her other cinematic credits include ‘A Day to Remember’, ‘Doctor in the House’, ‘Three Men in a Boat’, the ‘Carry On’ film series, and ‘The Girl from Rio’. In 1969, she quit acting so she could focus on her family.
