Never speak ill of the dead but I never understood the Mary Millington thing. I'm being lazy, perhaps it's been debated before and I ought to do a search, but can someone explain exactly why MM is regarded as a "Sex Goddess".

Hey steve56 slow down. I don't give a flying fart whether or not MM had any potential as a "serious" actress, I'm just saying I never found her the slightest bit sexy.

Mart, ignore Steve's inane ramblings. MM was a pioneer in UK porn, she had a very liberal approach which was very refreshing at the time. Looking back, she is probably classed as 'ordinary' compared to other models from that era. But as a groundbreaker and carefully managed, and expoited, she is a leading figure of the industry from a time when UK porn was in its infancy. The fact she died added to her 'legendary' status, but most fans will agree, she was past her marketable date for top notch modelling assignments and on the downward spiral.

Very well put,Ace...and of course,this was a completely different era that she lived in (we all did,come to think of it!),it was not so much as being 'sexy'it was WHAT she was doing in the '70's that turned people on...
Yes,today she might not have stood a chance in the business,as today,the World and it's wife are doing it!...whatever doing IT means?
MARY was like all those early Hollywood stars-they set the pace & standards for future generations to come...
