- Liz Fraser was a BAFTA-nominated English actress, best known for her comedy roles as a provocative "dumb blonde" in British films of the 1950s, '60s, and '70s.
Fraser is known for her many appearances in British films and television series, including Hancock's Half Hour, Citizen James, Last of the Summer Wine, and The Avengers episode "The Girl from Auntie". As Elizabeth Fraser, over a period of nearly six months, she appeared in numerous editions of the Associated-Rediffusion soap opera Sixpenny Corner (1955-56). She played Mrs. Brent, a dead/missing girl's mother, in "Nemesis" - one of the Joan Hickson Miss Marple episodes for the BBC in 1987. She gave a strong and memorable performance in The Professionals episode "Backtrack" the first broadcast in 1979 as Margery Harper (Marge) a glamorous lady who fenced stolen property in her shop.
She also appeared on Benny Hill's late-1950s TV shows, and in a single sketch in the 23 December 1970 episode of his Thames TV series. As this episode was in black & white (due to the "colour strike" by TV technicians, who wanted to be paid extra for working with the then-new colour TV technology), the sketch was not included in any of the half-hour syndicated episodes of the Benny Hill Show. However, it is included in the Volume 1 box set of the complete "Benny Hill Show", issued by A&E and Fremantle.
Her first film appearance was in Touch and Go (1955) credited as Elizabeth Frazer and The Smallest Show on Earth (1957) in which she worked with Peter Sellers for the first time. Further film appearances include I'm All Right, Jack (1959) for which she received a BAFTA nomination as Most Promising Newcomer, Two-Way Stretch (1960), The Americanization of Emily (1964), the sex comedies Adventures of a Taxi Driver (1976), Confessions of a Driving Instructor (1976), Adventures of a Private Eye (1977) and Rosie Dixon - Night Nurse (1978), and four of the Carry On films: Carry On Regardless (1961), Carry On Cruising (1962), Carry On Cabby (1963) and Carry On Behind (1975). Her other television work has included Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased), Crown Court, The Bill, Foyle's War, Birds of a Feather, Minder, and Holby City.
She died in September 2018.

Was stunning in the 60’s and 70’s. She should of been the leading girl in the carry ons. One sexy woman
I only saw her in the Joan Hickson-Miss Marple "Nemesis" where she played the role of Mrs. Brent. That´s such a sad scene, played sooo good, that I always end up in tears, despite of the shortness of her appearence. It really impressed me and still does.
Thank you so much, Miss Frazer! Rest in peace.

Elisabeth Fraser Yes Evolution (1920-2005) Hollywood 1940s Elisabeth
Gotta agree with Liz you cant replicate Hancock, his portrayal of "Hancock" on BBC was unique , a one off , watched others trying to do him, Jim Mc Manus (especially) and Alfred Molina were good, Paul Merton was abysmal and embarrassing, when he sacked Galton and Simpson he went downhill rapidly , a dreadful series for ITV ( a chronic alcoholic by then but still funnier than Merton) wouldnt be hard i suppose so there you go killed himself with a bottle of vodka and a fistful of pills in 1968 PS Liz dosent seem bad mannered, then again shes an actor and they all play rolls on and off screen..... sadly Tony would know all about that.
RIP Liz Fraser !930-2018
Bless her part of the wide cast who still resonate and who cannot bd replaced.
Rest In Peace
Lovely Liz. 💐
How old would Liz be here anyone?? thanks
85
Wow, she still looks great, cheers bud!
At a guess, 72. She's 86 now.
85, you're joking surely?
I would have said about 70?
R.I.P Liz Fraser
not half yahya mmm I say...
Many years ago I wrote a TV play for a competition ( did not win ) with her in mind for the lead role. I also sent a copy to her agent and I wonder if she ever saw it. Looking at this interview she could still play the part!
RIP LIZ
“I’ve worked with nearly every top British comic” totally deluded. Sad really.
Met her today....massive disappointment she was extremely rude to all attendees and interviewer and seemed to forget what she was talking about most of the time...not sure if she's starting to go senile but very abrupt and short with people. Seems to forget that the fans are the only thing worth keeping her going today
Lies fucking troll !
Met her today. What a horrible old woman.
'old' mate is the key word. But she was never horrible. She had a life-how's yours going ?
Durins Bane better than yours. Go fuck your self
What a horrible sad troll I've just dug out.
Back into your cave trolls. Begone !! Tomorrow the sunlight will hurt you very much.
