Glasgow thug left Dynasty star Stephanie Beacham 'terrified' after armed house raid
Dynasty star Stephanie Beacham has said she no longer feels safe in her cottage and has struggled to learn her lines after being threatened with a two-foot metal bar in a "terrifying" armed raid by a thug from Glasgow.
Prosecutor John Traversi told Southwark Crown Court: "During the course of this incident, which was terrifying for Ms Beacham, when in the circumstances of which she found herself, she had real fears for her life." The prosecutor described an incident where Ms Beacham thought she heard a noise upstairs when she had come home and got her neighbour to stand at the door while she checked.
The court heard Ms Beacham has doubled her sleep medication, has nightmares and panic attacks and no longer walks her dog after dark. "She began to descend the stairs, calling out, 'who's that?' And she sees the defendant standing at the bottom of the staircase.
