Carol Royle Revisited. 2011 by Stephen B Whatley
Image by Stephen B Whatley
The beautiful British actress of stage and screen, Carol Royle, photographed earlier this month at her home, with her iconic portrait, painted in 2005 by expressionist artist Stephen B Whatley.
Carol Royle is the daughter of actor Derek Royle and film make-up artist Jane Royle, whose talents were to be seen in many films; from The Rocky Horror Show (1975) to the Harry Potter films (2001-2004).
Carol Royle's extraordinary beauty and great talent as an actress has shone on television since the 1970s in numerous television productions; including Blakes 7 (1978), The Professionals (1978-79), Bergerac (1983), Oxbridge Blues (1983), The Bill (1996-2001), Heartbeat (1997-2003), Casualty (1990-2010) & Doctors (2005-2011).
The actress has also starred in an eclectic range of theatre productions over the years, including Shakespeare's Hamlet (for which she was acclaimed by the London Drama Critics), Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest; & Festen, a British stage adaption of the Danish film of the same name.
Her film credits include The Greek Tycoon (1978), Tuxedo Warrior(1982); and Miss In Her Teens - a period drama also featuring Ian McKellen; due for release in 2012.
Ms Royle is also blessed with a wonderful eloquent voice; that is invaluable in voiceover work in commercials and documentaries.
Carol Royle exhuded a spirit of grace and serenity as she gazed out at her garden during the 2005 portrait sitting; and calls her portrait "wonderful". She remains one of Stephen B Whatley's favourite sitters - for her great patience, warmth and kindness as he painted; that has lead to a continued heartfelt correspondence.

Celebrity Theater Update, October 24, 2007
Image by Robinson Film Center
Every day, the theaters being constructed inside of The Robinson Film Center start to look less like construction sites and more like actual theaters. This view of the Celebrity Theater (still available for a naming opportunity) is one of the best I have seen. Those holes in the wall are "port windows" - two for 35mm film projection, and several for digital sources.
