Abigail (Actress)Abigail (full name Abigail Rogan) was an Australian actress in the 70s and 80s. She was born in England and migrated to Australia in 1968. After arriving in Australia, Abigail landed minor roles and parts in both stage and screen, in addition to the female lead in a local production of the comedy There's a Girl in my Soup. She is most well known for her role as sex symbol Bev Houghton in the Ten Network sexed-up soap opera, Number 96. After leaving that series suddenly in 1973 she appeared in a Kings Cross revue in which she appeared nude, while struggling to find serious acting jobs. Apart from several soap opera guest roles the serious acting career never took off. She also made an attempt at pop career in 1974 with her recording of Je'taime. Although this debut was a success, follow-ups including a comedic release with ventroliquist Chris Kirby, were not, and her initial success was attributed to her stardom and not her singing talent. In 1975 she appeared in Class of '75 for three weeks as a prim French teacher in a black wig and frumpy spectacles, and in 1977 she appeared in The Young Doctors as a super-efficient secretary. In the mid 1980s she took a regular role in yet another soap opera Sons and Daughters, and in 1991 appeared in Chances. Her 1973 autobiography "Call Me Abigail" sold 150,000 copies in its first two weeks of sale. External links Reference - http://www.milesago.com/Artists/abigail.htm
