In 1977, Jill Townsend made a very memorable guest appearance on the sci-fi TV show Space: 1999. This episode aired right before the second series of Poldark first aired. After that Jill Townsend pretty much retired from acting, only appearing in the horror movie The Awakening in 1980 and an appearance on the TV show Scarecrow and Mrs. King in 1985. However, her featured role on Space: 1999 really displayed her fundamental beauty and charm and was a nice way to cap off over a decade of great TV guest appearances.
