I was a flavia's starlet from 1953 until 1960 - I enjoyed the whole experience and made many friends. I will always remember the donuts brought in on a Saturday morning.
Hi, I had friend from way back, that I remember seeing at show put on by Flavia at Metropolitan Theatre, Edgware Rd. She played a part called "Girl in a Picture" Her name was Pat Swain and she lived in Gorefield House Flats off Cambridge Avenue, Klburn. Her Mum and Dad where Eileen and Roy. Do you by any chance remember her or even perhaps know her married namer and/or whereabouts now. Cheers. Ian.
