Who knew that Lara Parker played a nurse (p. 2) on DS?  [ghost_rolleyes]

I really enjoyed this, thanks! I would have loved to have been able to save some of these.

That dress that Joan Bennett is wearing with the huge polka dots is certainly unique.

Wow, that was very nice of IMDb to do. And I've never even seen some of those photos (yes, Joan and her polka dots is definitely unique  [ghost_wink]).

Thanks so much Midnite (and Kosmo).  [ghost_smiley]

I'm sure the polka-dot "dress" (I'd call it a housecoat) was something Joan wore for comfort while rehearsing.  We've seen Grayson's smocks many times but this is the first glimpse I've ever seen of what Joan wore for this.  Great photos.

All the photos say Getty Archive and presumably can be viewed if one searches DS on their site.  It's incredible some of the things that have turned up there in the past couple of years.

Today was a day of sorrow and mourning ... FORTY FIVE YEARS AGO.  How the hell did THAT happen??

Liz wore the giant circle print trapeze line to her aborted wedding to Jason and then it disappeared without a trace.

one can assume this well used cast shot was taken around the time of that episode's production. Denis Patrick and Grayson Hall can't have overlapped more than a couple weeks.


it always amazes me that during the five year run there were only two 'official' full cast photo sessions.
