Claire Bloom

This is Claire Bloom in her younger days, far too beautiful to have been married to Rod Steiger in her 20s and 30s.


Four years ago, aged 73, she turned up in Unrequited looking awful as mutton dressed as lamb.


Now 77, she made an appearance in New Tricks, a UK crime show in which three retired police officers try to solve old cases. Slimmer than four years ago, I think she looks absolutely stunning. So much so that at first I didn't recognise her. I think she looks stunning.

    Maybe they made her up to look like a failed child star who'd lost her marbles?!

    Loved her in the LOCI episode, but I've always enjoyed her performances. Age 77 and still acting ... you go, girl! Ya think Vincent will keep acting into his seventies?!??!

    It took me a moment or two to recognise her too...just hope I look as good as her when I'm in my 70's :-)

    I haven't heard of her before. Maybe they were going for the "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane" angle w/ the LOCI episode?
