Barbara Parkins was so beautiful. This soap began to lose viewers in 1966 when Mia Farrow jumped ship.
Stephen Cord finds out that his real mother is Catherine Peyton.
Jill Smith is a mother and a still a miss.
Shocking!
Heavens to Allison MacKenzie! THANKS for posting this! I dont’ recall ever seeing this show as a kid in the 60′s but do know it was a huge hit in it’s time. The first “prime time” soap I believe. I’m a huge fan of actress Elizabeth “Tippy” Walker. She was a cast member on this show for a short time during its last season. She’s probably best known for her film debut in the charming ’64 movie comedy “The World of Henry Orient”. A lovely & gifted performer.
This was one of the first episodes…of the last season.
I remember the last episode in June,1969.I saw the show just for the heck of it-and they left about eight or nine issues unresolved.:-)
