Helli Louise Brunchmann Jacobson, often billed as Helli Louise (2 August 1949 – 22 June 2018),[1] was a Danish born actress who appeared in British films and television, including The Benny Hill Show, during the 1970s.

Career

Jacobson was born on 2 August 1949 in Copenhagen, Denmark. She moved to the United Kingdom in the early 1970s, studying at the London Film School c. 1971, and developing a curious Copenhagen/Cockney accent along the way. Represented by Barrie Stacey Promotions during her British acting career, she appeared in John Jesnor Lindsay's film The Hot Girls (1974), a fake exposé of the modelling world.[2] More mainstream work included guest appearances in The Sweeney and The Goodies, and roles in Carry On Behind (1975) and several other British sex comedies.[3] Jacobson was also active on stage appearing in a touring production of Hair in 1974, and in the stage farce Pyjama Tops (c. 1973) where co-stars included Fiona Richmond, Jess Conrad and Lucienne Camille.[4][5]

Aside from her acting career Jacobson was also the managing director of a clothing firm, and worked in the music industry managing a band called Ix. After a role in 1979's The World Is Full of Married Men, she left acting to pursue work in the music industry full-time, and then worked for Harvey Goldsmith.[3]
