Queen of Film Joan Collins filming at the Queen Hotel in Portsmouth
Stars of the silver screen were spotted in Southsea today. Hollywood star and author, Joan Collins and Pauline Collins of Shirley Valentine fame, were in the area filming for “The Time of their Lives”, a Thelma and Louise style story about two women who find friendship through an unforgettable journey. They spent most of the day filming in the Queen’s Hotel ballroom which was out of bounds to guests for the duration.
