Just found out that Beth Owen, who appeared as Sally in the Avengers episode The Forget-Me-Knot (1968), is actually... Hazel Williams.
She was Miss Wales in 1962 and later Miss Congeniality (tie with Dominican Republic) of Miss Universe 1962.
She was born around 1940 (not 1946), from Cardiff and started in television back in the 1950s. Married to South African actor Thor Munday in 1970.
I added her work from TV play No Baby, No Baby at All (1965) as Jane Ambler to IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0654085/
Hazel Williams (aka Beth Owen) on following Twitter post:

Many thanks, Franky. The problem is that some accounts are owned by other persons and we have to study the content carefully to come to a certain conclusion. But I have now again analyzed this mentioned Ian Ogilvy page by the link and made sure that this is one of his personal.  So, thanks to you, now Ian Ogilvy is included in the list.

| no doubt, it's a huge body of work, waiting to be put together and sorted out..and the list of those still around in 2020, is rather large, and the coming year could see further reductions and death notices, as time marches by..The work Denis is doing is important, as it helps preserve the legacy of the series |

Thanks for the kind words. Among other important things, regularly checking this section helps to find notes that have not been released in the news, like notes about Pamela Ann Davy, Gilles Milinaire and others.
The only thing I started to notice that I already strongly fixated on this topic, which leads to certain thoughts (although on the other hand we live in a very difficult time and this topic "life and death" is now too urgent). I think after I'm done with this New Avengers section of the forum...
http://avengersfanforum.s2.bizhat.com/viewtopic.php?t=3794
...I will switch to continuing to reanimate Steedumbrella.

again, thanks for the additional data....looking over previous posts to this thread, a huge body of work...I doubt any web site / fan page/etc has as much detailed info pertaining to a show / actors / etc...unless I'm wrong... |

I think with some of the topics we are moving well with the Doctor Who fanbase.

yes, I would concur with that opinion...keeping in mind, The good Doctor and his series, had a far longer run than the Avengers.... |

I just found out that for some unknown reason the actress Pearl Catlin's account on Twitter no longer exists. 
https://twitter.com/PearlCatlin
She was active on the mentioned social network for a long time and her account recently existed when I checked it out. Alas, she long ago abandoned her account on Facebook, so now Pearl will be listed without being linked to any social network in the list of this topic.

Stuntman Steve Emerson added to the "Unconfirmed and unidentified" paragraph. According to 1970 Film/TV Action Directory, he did stunts in The Avengers.

The name Leslie Soden has been moved to a new paragraph "Those who were attached to the filming, but were not used or were not included in the final cut".

Yes, we all quickly become old people as we grow up. Time flies faster and faster. Oh, my Steed.
