I got an amazing e-mail!

Post by Mr Chronos »

It has been my mission over the past couple of years to try and track down and personally thank Eileen O'Neill for playing the delicious Millie-Second on batman. I thought about the best way to do this and thought I would contact The Thallians which is a charity she has links to in LA. So, I contacted them not expecting much (77 now). And then I got THIS E-MAIL the other day!!!

'Dear 'Mr Chronos' (Ha Ha!)

Thank you so much for your kind e-mail. It was a real pleasure to be cast as Millie-Second on such a zany show! Walter was wonderful to work with as well as Adam and Burt. I'm amazed people still love it after 50 years. Yes, I do still own the dress, and they let me keep the clock earrings too! I also own the dvd and it was fun to play a crook after Burke's Law which was another great show to be on.

Best wishes to you and all bat-fans,

Eileen'

WOW!!! I did it and it only took me 4 years lol. Like I said when I contacted Siv Aberg and got a response I didn't expect anything either and now its happened again with my no 1 moll! Some of the remaining cast are vet private but this was bloody amazing people. Keep those cards and letters coming and thank you so much Eileen! x

Eileen was absolutely a moll to end all molls. Yes, there are pretty girls in TV & film today, but back then they were just stunning!

That is an absolutely wonderful experience, Mr. Chronos. I've been fortunate enough to have similar experiences over the years, but I won't bring them up here. Suffice it to say that I know exactly how you felt when you received that e-mail.

It's always refreshing when celebrities respond to us positively, especially celebrities that didn't have to.

I know this thread is old but I just rewatched the Clock King episode - Minnie’s the most gorgeous moll on my list!! And - I think Katy Perry may have modeled herself after Eileen.

She wasn't the only one on Burke's Law. Many actresses got their start on that show.

You’re not kidding! I just looked that show up as it’s a bit before my time and I hadn’t heard of it before. Thanks!
