Morgan Fairchild

If you wanted to give an example of an 80's TV icon who personified the look and fashion of that era than you need look no further than Morgan Fairchild. Beautiful, sassy and criminally underused in the DiD stakes!

Despite full treatment scenes in Big Shamus, Little Shamus and in the TV movie Sherlock Holmes and the Leading Lady to her credit, we still all kind of feel cheated. The Shamus scene is part of a fake robbery so little by the way of true DiD, and the Sherlock Holmes scene is too short and not particularly well shot.

We all really thought it would come. but despite guest starring in numerous formula cop shows and made for tv thrillers (one even called Held for Ransom) and some potentially lurid video covers (see below), unfortunately nothing else transpired.
