by Damon Wise (Author)
Exactly how did Diana Fluck, born in Swindon and raised in post-war Britain, become Diana Dors - the nearest thing to a blonde bombshell to merit comparison with her contemporary Marilyn Monroe, that Britain ever produced? The roots of this mystery lie at the heart of this book - a quest to define how a woman whose acting career was never as distinguished as it should have been, whose brassy, peroxide and pneumatic charms prevented her from being taken seriously, and whose friendships with the underworld were dubious, remains a household name to this day.
