The Blonde Bombshell was a two-part miniseries based on the life and death of actress Diana Dors. It was produced by LWT for ITV, and was first shown on 26 and 27 April 1999.[1] Keeley Hawes played Dors during her early career (1945–1960) and Amanda Redman for her later years (1965–1984).

Diana Dors' son, Mark, claims that the series got the story wrong, and offers a different portrayal of his mother.[2]

Reception

Eddie Gibb of the Sunday Herald states "This is a sad story badly told."[3]
