From the past (when in their prime)
These 3 are 'brown bread'
Veronica Lake who stood 4 feet 11 and a half inches tall, died in 1973 aged just 50, from hepatitis, alone in hospital, with no visitors. (schizophrenic and alcoholic)
Elizabeth Taylor 5 feet 2 inches tall, died in 2011 aged 79
Rita Hayworth 5 feet 6 inches tall - died in 1987 aged 68
These two are still alive
Maureen O'Hara - 5 feet 8 inches tall, still going at 94 years old
Sophia Loren 5 feet 8 and a half inches tall, and aged 80.
Be tall, live longer

You should have got in when she was younger, she was born in Hampstead, London.
Saved your feet a long walk. |

If pressed I'd pick Sophia Loren but I do agree with STUDYFORM in that none of them are even remotely remarkable looks wise. I never could understand how Elizabeth Taylor was considered to be a beauty, she was a very plain Jane to my eyes.

Doesn't the winner from the last round (Kiera Knightley) go through to this one?
Anyway,out of those five I would probably go for Rita Hayworth. |

Funnily enough I was shopping in Liverpool One earlier and a beautiful young lady was next to me in line for the till in John Lewis.
She was like a young Sophia Loren - right up to the point she squawked "It's fookin chokka in town - its doin' ma fookin head in" down her mobile to the poor individual on the other end. Kind of ruined the dream. |

Saskia, Sabine and Anastasia who work in the deli across the road all knock spots off that lot. Especially Sabine

WEIGHED IN
It finished a draw between Rita and Sophia, so I had to vote for a winner, which is a shame as I'd have gone for Maureen as my original choice, who never got a single vote Judging these women in their prime made it hard... The winning vote goes to Sophia because an extra two and a half inches makes all the difference. |

Sophia Loren is like The Cruz girl, I don't get it. You wouldn't kick it out but you have had better.

Apparently she made a mean caponata and could suck black pudding through an artic explorers sock.
Before she met Carlo of course... |
