She was a very sexy fbb indeed. I saw a former-fbb on tv (This Morning, in the UK) in the early 1990s. She was in a wheelchair as a result of taking steroids in order to be competitive in the mid/late 1980s. I think she later took her own life. I thought it was Caroline. If not, any idea who it was?

It was Zoe Warwick who took her life, the woman was an animal, i read  in a newspaper article that she ripped a taxi door off its hinges when the driver accidently trapped her hand in the door!!!!!!!!!

Post by: ollie703 on April 09, 2010, 09:22:37 pm
Thanks for that. always wondered who it was. Couldnt find any pics but she appeared on This Morning in November 1994. Another fbb, Joanne Amies Winter, apparently one of the strongest women in the world, also British, died in the 1990s, apparently as a result of drugs. Very little info on her too.

Jo also was known as Joanne Barter. She competed in one of the strongwoman competitions that got shown on telly over here (the same one that was won by Michelle Sorenson - whatever happened to her?) and she was huge.

I had heard it was gymnastics during the credits. Man With the Golden Gun or the Spy WHo Loved me maybe?
Title: UK Muscle Pioneer, Carolyn Cheshire
Post by: Timmon on August 28, 2011, 03:24:47 pm
Caroline Cheshire. The first ever FBB from the UK, she was our answer to Rachel McLish, and inspired British women to take up weight training.
I cannot find any record of her UK achievements, and she did not posses the muscle power to defeat the top athletes in the world, but was a great athlete, very sexy, and really nice person. And her muscles were pretty good when compared to today's Physique girls!

Nah - she wasn't in that. Anita Pinnock and another girl were the main FBBs in that video... can never remember other girl's name but she got very sick and disiullusioned with BBing - not a happy story.

I heard somewhere, perhaps a Weider mag, that she appeared in the credit sequence of a James Bond film.

Yes, The Spy Who Loved Me. She appeared with other dancers, but Carolyn was the one who danced and got up close with Roger Moore. Her unmistakable silhouette is in the clip here.

A great reason alone, to see a great British Movie with the pioneer British FBB.

I know this is ridiculously late, but the programme you remembered was called 'The Golden Oldies Picture Show' from about 1985. It was hosted by DJ Dave Lee Travis & for those who don't know of it, featured video interpretations of popular songs from the 1960's (pop videos were all the rage back then).   Carolyn was posing to 'Bend Me Shape Me' by Amen Corner in a zebra print bikini.

I remember that - it was a music video programme hosted by Dave Lee Travis; she was posing to 'Bend Me, Shape Me' (Amen Corner) in a black & white bikini, at a time when you rarely saw FBB on mainstream TV. I've searched for the vid on YouTube, but sadly without success...
