Quote
1
I was frightened of every opportunity I had. Part of me wanted the success and notoriety and part of me didn't. Part of me is a private person, but part of me must be a show-off to be able to be in the limelight. It would be lovely -- in an ideal world -- if I could do the work and then go home and have my private life and be totally anonymous. Unfortunately, it can't be that way.

[In a 1988 interview] As I get older, I'm becoming more experienced and more secure about myself and my work. Having not taken the correct route of drama school and the stage, it has been extra hard for me. I felt I didn't have the experience and therefore, I was very insecure. Now however, I feel I have -- in a way -- paid my dues by going back to the beginning and starting again. That's why I have been jumping at so many different projects. I feel I've earned the chance. I feel I can be up there with the other actors. I'm still not completely secure, but I'm much more secure than I used to be.

Fact

Has two daughters with George Dugdale: Georgina and Iona Dugdale.

She did most of her own stunts in the B movie cult classic Starcrash (1978).
She was offered the role of Sister Hyde in Dr Jekyll & Sister Hyde (1971) which she turned down because this required some nudity. The role eventually went to Martine Beswick.
According to Caroline's website interview with ZANI, she was not earmarked to appear in the movie Captain Kronos - Vampire Hunter (1974) originally but her schedule worked out and she did. Kronos was actually supposed to be a serial of films when this first came out in 1974. However, the movie was not well received and the idea was scrapped. This remains her favorite film.
She once sang in her church choir. At age 16, she recorded some vocals on the single "Tar and Cement" in 1966, for EMI, which featured Eric Clapton, Cream drummer Ginger Baker and future Yes guitarist Steve Howe. The producer needed to add a few overdubs. Caroline got the job because her father's friend was the head of Decca Records at the time. Caroline has appeared in two music videos, "Goody Two Shoes" with Adam Ant and "If You Really Want to" with Meat Loaf. In addition, she recorded the single "Pump Me Up" with Gary Numan. Her latest music project is "Wilson Munro", in which she has teamed up with Gary Wilson to record a three-track CD.

She was interviewed for the book "Invasion of the B-Girls" by Jewel Shepard.
She was the only actress to have been signed a contract with Hammer Studios.

She turned down an offer to do a Playboy magazine nude spread. In fact, she refused to do any nude work at all and rejected such movie offers as The World Is Full of Married Men (1979) and Force 10 from Navarone (1978) that asked for such.
