I'm watching an obscure British horror film called Blood on Satan's Claw (1971) and it features a fresh-faced young woman in a supporting role as a 13 or 14 year old village girl. And she's freakin' familiar and it's weirding me out.
Yeah, so it turns out that it's Wendy Padbury, AKA Zoe Heriot, one of the Second Doctor's companions and Queen of Awesome Space Catsuits. What's especially disconcerting is that Padbury left Doctor Who in 1969, two years before the movie I'm watching was made.
Did I mention that Padbury was 23-24 in 1971?
(Anthony Ainley is also in this, but he's beardless and therefore I didn't recognize him without the IMDb telling me which character he was playing)
ETA: Oh GOD ZOE NO!
