Biography

Born in Hastings, New Zealand of Estonian descent;[1] she trained in RADA in the United Kingdom. After graduating in 1966 she went on to appear in many popular British television programmes, including The Avengers and Doctor Who in The Seeds of Death.[2][3]

Her British films included Jane Eyre (1970), Sex and the Other Woman (1972) and On the Game (1974).[4]

She subsequently emigrated to Australia in the late 1970s where she continued her acting career, appearing in films such as Dawn! in 1979, Far East and Norman Loves Rose in 1982.[4]

In 1977, Pajo joined the cast of Cop Shop as Don McKenna's wife, Carol.[5] Other notable roles include the three episode guest role of Helen Masters in Prisoner in 1979.[6] This was followed by the regular role of the snobbish Margery Carson in Carson's Law for its entire two-year run, airing from January 1983 to December 1984.[7] Other Australian series she has featured include roles in The Flying Doctors, Brides of Christ, A Country Practice and Home and Away. Her last known on screen role was in Big Sky in 1999, and she retired from acting in 2000 at age 60.[8]

During her retirement, Pajo would occasionally appear at Doctor Who signings and question and answer events. Two of her most recent appearances at such events were at the "Fantom Autumn Signing Spectacular" in Chiswick on 21 October 2017, and at the Fantom Films Galaxy 4 event in Sheffield on 28 October 2017.[9][10][11]

Louise Pajo died on 23 November 2020, aged 80.[12]
