I would, except that
she isn't a 70s tv star - she was more 80s and 90s.
And I have to admit I've got a bit sniffy about all the Teletubbies and Tweenies etc. This compo has become a'just put children's tv characters in unusual poses' thing. I mean, fair enough if they're really funny, but it doesn't fit the brief.

this
the original suggestion had 70s / 80s in it, but I rewrote it for the actual challenge mindful that our members are all sorts of ages

;)
isn't that what most compos turn out to be: just take whoever is mentioned in the challenge title and put them in unusual poses?
