Thanks for the info!

November 1983 Daytime Digest

Loved the recap! I just watched all of 1983 of SFT. Thars about a month's worth of story recounted there, and obviously much is left out. The pictures were great though!

Thanks for posting the clipping. The write-up about Tom Sullivan was very touching - how he didn't let blindness keep him from pursuing his dreams.

Dianne Thompson / Alexandra Neil (Gwen)


From the book Now you tell me! 12 Actors Give The Best Advice They Never Got by Sheridan Scott & Chris Williams (2012)

I never knew she was on SFT. When was she on?

She was a day player in December 1984, as "Gwen."

I think she was also a day player on The Edge of Night in 1984. I seem to recall a scene between her and Preacher when they were on a plane.

I've got Dianne(Alex) Neil as Mary Louise in 84 on EoN. On Search, I have her as Gwen Hoffman, Stephanie's secretary. I think she had something to do with Jack Benton, Sunny's rapist, but I'm not sure.

Thanks for the info, everybody!

**sigh**

Any thought of Stephanie's secretary makes me wistful for Rhonda Sue. Tina Johnson was a comedic gem.

Feb 26 1964

Joanne tells Stu that Isabel has been spreading wild rumors by claiming that Patti had an affair with Isabel's husband. In the meantime, Patti wants to delay her marriage to Brad because of Isabel's claims. Brad agrees to postpone the wedding, but ultimately wants Patti to forget about Isabel's vendetta and concentrate on their upcoming life together

Tina and Dianne were perfection as Lurlene and Ruby on Texas. How interesting that they both portrayed Stephanie's secretary.

SFT loved a TEXAS refugee. Tina Johnson. David Forsyth. Damion Scheller. I'm surprised they didn't cast more. I would've loved Carla Borelli as Liza, Donald May as Lloyd, and Elizabeth Berridge as Suzi.

I was reading a Jon Michael Reed synopsis in an old newspaper column that Gwen was DATING Jack Benton, Sunny's rapist. When Sunny went to confront him at his(or maybe Gwen's) apartment, Gwen was knocked out on the floor.
