Stephanie Beacham (born 28 February 1947) is an English actress. In a career spanning six decades, she has a wide number of credits to her name on film, television, stage and radio in both the United Kingdom and the United States.

Beacham began appearing on British television in 1967 and made her big screen debut in the 1970 film The Games following this with roles in Tam Lin (1970) with Ava Gardner, and The Nightcomers (1971) opposite Marlon Brando. During the 1970s, Beacham had become widely known for her roles in multiple British Hammer Horror films, however after garnering acclaim with successful starring roles in the television series Tenko (1981–1982) and Connie (1985), it was Beacham's role as Sable Colby in the ABC series Dynasty (1985–1989) and its spin-off The Colbys (1985–1987) that would make her a household name on both sides of the Atlantic.

Following the cancellation of Dynasty, Beacham starred as the title role in Sister Kate (1989–1990), Iris McKay in the American teen drama Beverly Hills, 90210 (1991–1994), Dr. Kristin Westphalen in Steven Spielberg's NBC science fiction series SeaQuest DSV (1993–1994) and Countess Regina Bartholomew in Star Trek: The Next Generation (1993).

Beacham returned to the UK to play Phyl Oswyn in the ITV prison-based drama series Bad Girls (2003–2006), Martha Fraser in the long-running ITV soap opera Coronation Street (2009, 2022) and also on reality television competing in Strictly Come Dancing (2007) and Celebrity Big Brother (2010).

Beacham has appeared on stage on both the West End and Broadway, with roles including Mrs. Cheveley in An Ideal Husband (1996–2001), Elizabeth I in Elizabeth Rex (2002) and Maria Callas in Master Class (2010–2011). She was nominated for a Golden Globe Award in 1990 for her role in Sister Kate, as well as several other nominations for playing Sable Colby in The Colbys and Dynasty.

Early life

Beacham, one of four siblings, was born in Barnet, Hertfordshire, England,[2] the daughter of Joan (née Wilkins), a housewife, and Alec, who was an insurance executive and later became the managing director of the Grosvenor estate.[3] Beacham attended the Queen Elizabeth's Girls' Grammar School in Barnet. Aged 13, she hitch-hiked "all over Europe" with a group of friends.[4]

Initially aspiring to become a ballerina, Beacham's dreams were cut short when her instructors told her that she would be unable to continue due to her partial deafness. Leaving school aged 17 in 1964, Beacham travelled to Boulogne-Billancourt in Paris, France, to study mime with Étienne Decroux with the goal of teaching dance movement to deaf children. While in Paris, Beacham got a job as an au-pair girl to help finance her mime school fees. After returning to the UK, Beacham visited a boyfriend who was acting at the Everyman Theatre in Liverpool. This sparked her interest in theatre and she became the wardrobe assistant before playing juvenile leads with the theatre. Beacham then attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in London.[5]

Career

Beacham began a career in modelling before breaking into television. Her first screen role was in the BBC series The Queen's Traitor in 1967, in which she played Mary, Queen of Scots. During an interview, thinking Barnet sounded uninteresting, she told a reporter from the Northern Echo she was born in Casablanca, where her favourite Bogart/Bergman film was set.[2] After many further guest appearances in television series such as The Saint with Roger Moore, Callan, and UFO, Beacham's first film roles were in The Games directed by Michael Winner, and Tam Lin directed by Roddy McDowall, both released in 1970. She would work with Winner again in 1971's The Nightcomers, in which she starred opposite Marlon Brando. Beacham appeared nude in one scene, during the filming of which Brando wore Y-fronts and wellington boots under the bed clothes to ensure Winner did not film anything lower than was necessary.[6] The Nightcomers would prove to be Beacham's breakout role.

Following the success of The Nightcomers, Beacham was promoting the film in New York City when she was approached by Joseph E. Levine who had bought the rights to the film. Levine attempted to pressure Beacham to pose nude for Playboy, saying that if she did, then he would guarantee her an Oscar nomination for her role in the film. Beacham refused saying that she only appeared nude in The Nightcomers as she "was in character"; this infuriated Levine and he blacklisted her from Hollywood.[7] Beacham later revealed that she was approached by Sam Peckinpah for the main role in Straw Dogs (1971); Peckinpah told Beacham "You must have done something really bad because I'm a son of a bitch who can make anyone do anything and they won't let me use you" - the role subsequently went to Susan George.[8]

Despite this, Beacham continued to appear in film, television and on stage in the UK. Horror would be a genre that Beacham appeared in often during this period, and she was subsequently cast as Jessica Van Helsing in Hammer's Dracula A.D. 1972 (1972) alongside Peter Cushing. Her next role was as a repertory player with the Nottingham Playhouse, where she played several lead and feature roles, including the role of Nora in the Henrik Ibsen play A Doll's House. In 1973, she played Georgina Layton in Thames Television's daytime drama Marked Personal (1973–1974). The same year, she made an Italian film, Super Bitch (1973) The film was released in the US as Mafia Junction and in the UK as Blue Movie Blackmail. Beacham also continued to work in horror films, including And Now the Screaming Starts (1973), House of Mortal Sin (1975), Schizo (1976) and Inseminoid (1981) – a film she admits taking for the fee.[9]

From 1981 to 1982, Beacham featured as a member of the ensemble cast of the BBC series Tenko, about a group of women prisoners of war held captive by the Japanese after their invasion of Singapore in 1942. Following this, she continued working in theatre and television before landing the lead role in the 13-part ITV drama series Connie (1985). Her roles in Tenko and Connie helped to springboard her into one of her most well-remembered roles, that of the devious matriarch Sable Colby on the television series The Colbys (1985–1987). The Colbys was a spin-off of the opulent prime-time soap Dynasty which had been the highest rating programme in the USA that year. Beacham was cast opposite Charlton Heston as the tent-pole couple of the new show. The Colbys never experienced the success of its parent show and was cancelled after two seasons, though in 1988, Beacham was invited to reprise the role of Sable on Dynasty, playing opposite Joan Collins in a season-long "battle of the bitches" scenario; she then remained in the show until its end.[1] Beacham posed for Playboy in 1987.

After Dynasty was cancelled in 1989, Beacham landed the lead role in the children's fantasy film The Wolves of Willoughby Chase, playing an evil governess. She was then cast in the US sitcom Sister Kate, taking the lead role as a nun taking care of children in an orphanage. The series lasted for one season and was cancelled in 1990, though she earned a Golden Globe nomination for the role. She then returned to Britain to play Mrs. Peacock in an ITV game show version of the board game Cluedo (1990). In 1990, Beacham starred in the television miniseries Lucky Chances, based on the book written by Jackie Collins. Reuniting with Dynasty producer Aaron Spelling, Beacham also had a recurring guest role in the popular teen drama Beverly Hills, 90210, playing Iris McKay, the estranged mother of Luke Perry's character Dylan. Beacham appeared in six different television series produced by Spelling, including Dynasty and its spin-off, The Colbys,[10] The Love Boat, Beverly Hills, 90210, Burke's Law, and Charmed.

In 1992, Beacham starred opposite Christopher Plummer in the film Secrets, and followed this with a role in the television miniseries To Be the Best with Anthony Hopkins. In 1993, Beacham played Countess Regina Bartholomew in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Ship in a Bottle". Later in 1993, she signed on to play Dr. Kristin Westphalen in the NBC science fiction series seaQuest DSV, produced by Steven Spielberg. Her character was the chief oceanographer and medical doctor for the submarine seaQuest, however Beacham left the programme after its first season. Throughout the 1990s, she continued to make guest appearances on television programmes, working in both the UK and the US. Beacham was a judge on both Miss Universe 1994 and Miss World 2000. In 1995, Beacham starred in the play The Father alongside Edward Fox and in 1996, she starred in the BBC drama No Bananas which was set during World War II, and later appeared in the music video for Simply Red's single "Never Never Love" alongside Rula Lenska and Billie Whitelaw. For much of the remainder of the 1990s, Beacham appeared in roles in theatre; she played Mrs. Cheveley in a production of An Ideal Husband in Broadway in the US from 1996 to 1997 before embarking on a theatre tour of Australia in the same play and role in 1998.[11]

In 2002, Beacham played Elizabeth I in the play Elizabeth Rex at the Birmingham Repertory Theatre.[12] Later that year she appeared in two American romantic comedy films: Unconditional Love and Would I Lie to You?. In 2003, Beacham returned to the UK to take a role in the ITV prison drama Bad Girls. She played inmate Phyllida "Phyl" Oswyn for four years, partnered with Beverly "Bev" Tull (played by Amanda Barrie) as the "Costa Cons". She remained with the series to the end in 2006. In 2006, she played the Wicked Witch in a production of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves in Guildford. She appeared there again the following year in a production of Jack and the Beanstalk.[13] She also appeared in the 2006 movie Love and Other Disasters. She returned to stage work and toured the UK in 2007 as a lead in the Noël Coward play Hay Fever. Later that year, she competed in the 2007 series of the BBC's Strictly Come Dancing with professional partner Vincent Simone, though she was eliminated early in the competition (the second of fourteen celebrities) on 14 October 2007. In 2008, Beacham filmed scenes for Steven Berkoff's film, then known as Naked in London but later released as Moving Target.
