8 | Known for her blonde hair and husky voice, Johnson played mostly glamour roles in The70s. The ''Film/CarryOnSeries'' was where she made her debut in acting, with three roles in the TV series ''Series/CarryOnLaughing'', followed by a small role in ''Film/CarryOnEngland''. Her role in the latter was cut down so short that all of Johnson's lines were lost, but she is still visible in the background of scenes. |

10 | After appearances in ''Series/WhodunnitUK'', ''Odd Man Out'' (which starred her future co-star, Creator/JohnInman), and ''Series/TheSweeney'', she was cast in ''Are You Being Served?'' as the nurse of the frail Young Mr. Grace. Despite appearing across three series of the show (and even outlasting Creator/HaroldBennett, who played Young Mr. Grace), Johnson was mostly used for {{fanservice}} rather than acting, and her character was never given a name. |

12 | She has been retired from acting since 1981. |
