Biography

Barbara Leigh-Hunt trained in theatre at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School before joining the Old Vic Company in London. After performing in provincial repertory theatres, she returned to the Bristol Old Vic to play Rosemary in 'A Severed Head,' subsequently transferring with the production to the West End. She went back to Bristol to appear in 'Love's Labour's Lost' and 'Henry V,' touring Europe and Israel with these plays. Returning once more to Bristol for additional productions, she later toured the United States in 'Measure For Measure' and portrayed Ophelia opposite her husband, Richard Pasco, who starred as Hamlet. Upon returning to England, she achieved great success in the 1968 West End production of 'Mrs Mouse Are You Within.' Afterward, she appeared frequently at the Old Vic, with the Royal Shakespeare Company at the Aldwych Theatre, and at the National Theatre.

Her television debut came in 1956 with an episode of The Recording Angells. Over the years, she featured in episodes of series such as Callan (1967), Special Branch (1969), Inspector Morse (1987), The Ruth Rendell Mysteries (1987), and Kavanagh QC (1995), as well as mini-series including The Brontës of Haworth (1973), A Perfect Hero (1991), and Wives and Daughters (1999). Her film debut was in Alfred Hitchcock's Frenzy (1972), quickly followed by Henry VIII and His Six Wives (1972), where she portrayed Catherine Parr, and The Nelson Affair (1973). Though her film appearances have been limited since then, they include Billy Elliot (2000).
