Riviera Police

Yes I'm now 69 but was 19 when this series first aired on London Redifusion t.v. back in 1965.My hormones were in overdrive then and later on in 1982 I visited the magazine and newspaper library at Colindale near Edgware, Barnet in north London to arrange for a copy of the T.V.Times for 30/8/65 advertising this glamorous new TV series with "Christa Nelli" (a judge's daughter) on the front cover in a bikini.She was my ideal pinup of what a glamorous Italian actress should look like.A very dark head of hair, sensual eyes and curvy figure.I even painted her in oils being a talented amateur artist.Later I tracked down as many of her rather sordid films on DVD which were commercially available.She was born in Austria in 1946 the same year as me so I was sad to read she died aged 29 in 1975 of a fatal illness - read her biography.She was later billed as Doris Christonel and finally as Krista Nell.The series Riviera Police was OK but forgettable and I awarded it 6/10 but sadly Krista only appeared in the first episode.Her best film was "Tanz des Satans" (Dance with the Devil) 1971.
