Good one, here’s Diana Dors, who punned her stage name for works like ‘Swingin’ Dors’ and‘Behind Closed Dors’. She was the British blonde bombshell of the 1950s.Born Diana Mary Fluck, she changed her name for reasons https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_Dors:
‘They asked me to change my name. I suppose they were afraid that if my real name Diana Fluck was in lights and one of the lights blew…’

Diana Dors. Everyone of a certain age in the UK knows Diana Dors. Diana Dors was in that Prince Charming by Adam Ant video.
Without looking up, what else though?
Yeah, neither of us had a clue. Carry On movies? Er? Fuck knows. Everyone just kinda knew her. Absolute icon.

Wait, there's a #JoanCrawford film set in a circus?...and of all people it also has #DianaDors? My campometer just exploded💥
"Berserk! is a 1967 British horror-thriller film starring Joan Crawford, Ty Hardin, Diana Dors and Judy Geeson"... "in a macabre mother-daughter tale about a circus plagued with murders." 🤣
Bonus points for the exclamation mark in the film title

Room 43 (AKA Passport to Shame), a nicely sleazy 1958 British crime thriller about white slavery. Diana Dors stars.
There’s an amusing drug/dream sequence, a fascinating piece of psychedelia before anyone knew what psychedelia was.
An overheated sex and sin melodrama with style and fine performances and it works. It’s sleazy and romantic and thoroughly enjoyable in a slightly disreputable way.
