INTERVIEW | South African born actor Glynis Barber on building her TV career in the UK
- features first-hand accounts of what happened when a dream holiday turns into nightmares - from a honeymoon couple surviving an infamous Los Vegas shooting in 2017 to a spider bite with horrific consequences; these tales might give you second thoughts about that dream getaway."I'd already done a couple for them all different kinds of subjects, and they all did quite well. So when this one came up, they asked me and invited me to do it.
"I do sometimes react to bites, and I've actually been on little holidays where I've had a mosquito bite or a spider bite that's become so swollen. I have had to go to the local hospital, and I did once. I was in Corfu a few years ago, and I got stung by a wasp, nothing like the one in this documentary. But my leg got very red and a bit swollen.
"I suppose I'm lucky that I'm still going. I've done a bit of everything. I've done loads of television. I did a series in the 1980s called, which was a series that was incredibly popular. So, I became known for that. I mean, the fans are still there; people still talk about it.", where Barber plays Norma Crowe, who she says is a gangster.
