Diana Dors (born Diana Mary Fluck; 23 October 1931 – 4 May 1984) was an English film and television actress and singer.


She first came to public notice as a blonde bombshell, much in the style of American Marilyn Monroe, as promoted by her first husband, Dennis Hamilton, mostly via sex film-comedies and risqué modelling. After it transpired that Hamilton had been defrauding her, she continued to play up to her established image, and she made tabloid headlines with the parties reportedly held at her house. Later, she showed a genuine talent as a performer on TV, in recordings, and in cabaret, and gained new public popularity as a regular chat-show guest. She also gave some well-regarded performances in worthwhile films at different points in her career.


According to David Thomson, "Dors represented that period between the end of the war and the coming of Lady Chatterley in paperback, a time when sexuality was naughty, repressed and fit to burst."


Diana Mary Fluck was born in Swindon, Wiltshire, on 23 October 1931 at the Haven Nursing Home, Kent Road, Swindon, Wiltshire. Her mother Winifred Maud Mary (Payne) was married to Albert Edward Sidney Fluck, a railway clerk. Mary had been having an affair with another man, and when she announced she was pregnant with Diana, she admitted she had no idea if the other man or her husband was the father.


Diana was educated at a small private school, Selwood House. She enjoyed the cinema; her heroines from the age of eight onwards were Hollywood actresses Veronica Lake, Lana Turner and Jean Harlow.


Towards the end of the war Dors entered a beauty contest to find a pin-up girl for Soldier magazine; she came in third place. This led to work as a model in art classes and she began to appear in local theatre productions such as A Weekend in Paris and Death Takes a Holiday.
