It’s Wednesday and Mr. MWS craves Boty.

Pauline Boty completed her studies at the RCA in 1961 and almost immediately had her work featured in what many believe was the first ever Pop art exhibition – ‘Blake, Boty, Porter, Reeve’ at the AIA Gallery in London. In 1962 she featured in Ken Russell’s ‘Pop Goes the Easel’ a documentary about the then developing UK pop art scene and from this her acting career started to develop. She appeared in a few BBC and ITV plays and in 1963 with her then partner Derek Boshier was chosen from hundreds of applicants to be among the weekly dancers on the then uber-hip ‘Ready, Steady, Go!’

Around this time Boty met left-wing actor and writer Clive Goodwin and after what can only be described as a whirlwind 10-day romance married him in June 1963. Her marriage left many a man heartbroken not least Peter Blake; who said of Boty her only fault “was that she didn’t love me back”. Interestingly enough, prior to getting hitched she had been having a fling with married TV director Philip Saville who introduced Boty to her new husband. The relationship between Boty and Saville is said to be the inspiration for the 1965 film ‘Darling’ starring Dirk Bogarde and Julie Christie. She Also appeared as one of Caine’s girlfriends in Alfie. In short, there are ‘it’ girls and then there’s Boty.

There’s no welcome in the garden for conked out pizzagirl. Be assured, prior to this picture there was screaming, a tearful episode and declarations of love (Mix n’ match the order) all equally terrifying and handsomely unbecoming ending in a very dull - long game of Dr’s & paitent.
