Alexandra Bastedo, The Actress Who Became a Champion for Animals
Alexandra Bastedo was an English actress who rose to fame through her role in the TV series “The Champions” in 1968. However, she was not just another pretty face in the entertainment industry. Bastedo was an animal rights activist and the founder of the Alexandra Bastedo Champions Animal Sanctuary, where she provided a haven for rescued animals.
Her work in animal welfare was commendable, but her acting talents were equally impressive, having appeared in films like “Batman Begins” and “13 Frightened Girls.” Sadly, Bastedo passed away in 2014 at 67 but left behind a legacy of compassion for animals and iconic TV appearances.
