Despite changing the main protagonists' names, this Amicus version of Jekyll and Hyde is much more faithful to the novel and previous adaptations than Hammer's contemporary offering and suffered for it. It's well acted, especially by Lee in the dual role of Marlowe / Blake, but a rather sexless affair with too many scenes of middle aged men coming and going in the foggy London streets to be exciting.
Susan Jameson ( as Diane )
Sex : Diane offers her body to Dr Marlowe after taking his potion
Death : Survives
Susan started acting in the late fifties and has appeared mainly in TV roles. She is best known as Mrs James Bolam . They met on the set of The Likely Lads and they have appeared in several series together from When The Boat Comes In to New Tricks and Grandpa in My Pocket. She is now 76.
Marjie Lawrence ( as Annie )
Sex : Great cleavage
Death : Clubbed to death by Blake
Marjie plays more or less the same part in this one.
