Timeline

1915

Phyllis Hannah Bickle was born in Chelsea in 1915 and studied dancing at the Margaret Morris school of dance, until an injury forced her to give up dancing and turn instead to acting.

1925

Along with over 40 movies, she had a successful stage career, spanning 1925 ('Crossings' with Ellen Terry) to 1994 ('Bed') - appearing in such works as 'Blithe Spirit', 'The Heiress' and 'Peter Pan', as the title role of the boy who never grew up.

1927

Her 70 year film career began with a bit part in The Arcadians (1927) when she was just 12 years old.

1939

Met husband, actor Peter Murray-Hill, during the run of a West End production of "Punch Without Judy" in 1939. He later became a well-respected antiquarian bookseller specializing in 18th-century books.

1940

Phyllis Calvert became one of the names most associated with the Gainsborough costume melodramas of the 1940s, usually as the sweet heroine, or the steadfast non-nonsense leader.

After a small trip to Hollywood in the late 1940s, Phyllis returned to England and earned her one BAFTA nomination for the role of the mother of a deaf girl in Crash of Silence (1952) but after that her film career slowed down, with family taking precedence.

1941

Phyllis' film breakthrough came in 1941 in the adaptation of the HG Wells story, The Remarkable Mr.

Kipps (1941) in which she was cast as the servant girl, a part which had originally been turned down by Margaret Lockwood. In her next film, she was starring opposite international star Robert Donat, a far cry from the music hall comedians (George Formby, Arthur Askey) she had been acting with only a few years earlier.

1943

The Man in Grey (1943) truly catapulted her to stardom and from then on there was no looking back.

1950

Often typecast as the virtuous victim, but proved to be more versatile than previously expected by the 1950s. Her role in Crash of Silence (1952) has often been regarded by critics and fans alike as a high point in her career, in that the film allowed her the opportunity to demonstrate a range that all too often went untapped earlier in her film career.

1958

While shooting Indiscreet (1958), Phyllis was struck a cruel blow when her husband of 16 years, Peter Murray-Hill, passed away.

1960

Her stage career picked up markedly in the 1960s when she began taking more and more roles to better raise their two children solely.

1961

Mostly known for her rather lightweight film roles in drawing-room comedies or costumed melodramas, she subsequently played weightier roles on the stage, such as Jean Anouilh's "The Rehearsal" in 1961 and Anton Chekhov's "The Cherry Orchard" (1971).

1970

She gracefully slid into a niche of character roles, usually the kindly mother or aunt, and in 1970, had her own TV series, Kate (1970).

1980

In the 1980s she concentrated more on television, only appearing twice on stage.
