Lady Jane:

In this trailer you can see a VERY YOUNG Helena Bonham Carter and of course the ex-husband of Sheila Falconer, Patrick Stewart also in his absolute prime. 

“Lady Jane Grey, the 16-year-old girl who for nine days in the 16th century was Queen of England, is here portrayed by Helena Bonham Carter. Lady Jane Grey’s sickly cousin, who becomes Edward VI upon the death of Henry VIII, is on the threshold of death himself. The Protestant powers-that-be, fearing that England will fall under Catholic rule, contrive to marry off Edward VI’s most likely successor Lady Jane to the wastrelly Guilford Dudley (Cary Elwes), the future Duke of Suffolk. The dying Edward is coerced into naming Jane as his successor. Jane is forced to assume the throne, attempting to impose reforms on the corrupt Protestant government during her brief reign. A coup led by Jane’s cousin Princess Mary (Jane Lapotaire) results in the ouster, and eventual execution, of Queen Jane and her consort. The story is told through anti-establishment themes; teen-agers Lady Jane and Guilford Dudley are seen as the only hope for a brighter future, making their deaths all the more tragic. An earlier version of the same story, Tudor Rose, was filmed in 1936.” – Rotten Tomatoes

Half a Sixpence:

In this movie, Sheila Falconer played the role of Kate. The story revolves around Arthur Kipps, an orphan apprenticed to a tyrannical owner of a mercantile, has a sudden abrupt change of life when his wealthy grandfather dies and leaves him a pile of money.

Half a Sixpence is a 1967 British musical film directed by George Sidney and choreographed by Gillian Lynne. The screenplay by Beverley Cross is adapted from his book for the 1963 stage musical of the same name, which was based on Kipps: The Story of a Simple Soul, a 1905 novel by H. G. Wells. The music and lyrics are by David Heneker. This was the final film made by Sidney, director of such films as Annie Get Your Gun, Kiss Me Kate, Bye Bye Birdie and Viva Las Vegas.

Three Hats For Lisa:

Whilst you learn the tune of this catchy trailer shot in L-O-N-D-O-N, catch the girl with the black short wig, and you’ll probably see miss Falconer. 

Featuring a cast and production crew that reads like a Who’s Who of British Sixties talent, Three Hats For Lisa is directed by Sidney Hayers (The Avengers) with music by Oscar and Grammy-winning composer Leslie Bricusse (Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory). Three Hats For Lisa is an exuberant, whimsical and utterly irresistible musical romp set in the heart of Swinging London.

The musical, dance drama follows three young Cockneys taking a day off work to meet an Italian movie star at Heathrow airport. She travels with them and their taxi driver in search of some typically British hats. The rule of the game is to steal a hat from its wearer. Lisa wants a bobby’s helmet, a businessman’s bowler, and the bearskin cap off a palace guard. A musical chase ensues around Swinging Sixties London, evading press and police.
