Flanagan (model)

Maureen Flanagan,^[1] best known by her stage name Flanagan, was an early tabloid model.^{[citation needed]}

She had an acting career in the late sixties/early seventies, mainly in bit parts on The Benny Hill Show, Monty Python and several British sex comedies.^{[citation needed]} She also played the lead role in the Danish film The Loves of Cynthia (a.k.a. Cynthia’s Sister) in 1971.^{[citation needed]}

After her acting career ended, Flanagan continued to remain in the public eye, owing to her association with the Kray Twins and her efforts to secure their release.^{[citation needed]} She also wrote the book “Intimate Secrets of an Escort Girl” (Everest books, 1974).{ ^[2] The book was serialized in the magazine Tit-Bits, accompanied by a blurb which said “Britain’s most photographed model lays bare the facts of her working life in the sauciest story of the year.”^{[citation needed]}.

In 1997, Flanagan made a one-off return to nude modeling as a mature woman, posing fully nude in the magazine Men's World.^{[citation needed]}. In the accompanying interview she said her second husband had recently died after a heart transplant operation, and that she was busy raising a then-16 year old son.^{[citation needed]}
