Prunella Gee - Biography

The glamorous Prunella Gee was trained at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. She appeared in her first television series, 'Shabby Tiger' in 1973, which gave her instant notoriety due to her nude scenes. She became a virtual staple of British television thereafter, and was chosen to guest star in single episodes of 'The Sweeney', 'The Return of the Saint', 'Hammer House of Horror' and 'The Professionals'.

Prunella's impressive list of film credits include 'The Wilby Conspiracy' with Sidney Poitier and Michael Caine, the James Bond adventure 'Never Say Never Again' with Sean Connery, and 'Stormy Monday', in which she played Sting's wife.

On stage, she has played all three women in 'The Last of the Red Hot Lovers', the blind Sheila in 'Wait Until Dark', the double role of Alice in 'Double Take' and Romaine in 'Witness for the Prosecution'.

In 1998, Prunella went to Los Angeles to make 'The Merchants of Venus', in which she starred with Michael York, Beverly D'Angelo and Brian Cox. One year later she appeared as Doreen Heavey for a five month stint in the long-running British soap opera 'Coronation Street'.

Since giving up acting in 2004, Prunella has worked as a counselor and therapist in Camden, London. In 2011, she agreed to appear in the short film 'Trimming Pablo', a one-off return to the acting field.
