TRIVIA

Ronn Moss (Ridge Forrester) was the first person to appear on-screen in The Bold.

John McCook (Eric Forrester) had the first line in the series.

John has a South African connection: he was married to the late dancer Juliet Prowse, who grew up here.

In Italy the soap is called Beautiful. In Norway, Denmark and Sweden it’s titled Glamour.

Katherine Kelly Lang’s sons, Jeremy and Julian Snider, played Rick and Bridget ‒ her character Brooke Logan’s children ‒ as kids.

Lesley-Anne Down, who plays Jackie Marone, the mother of Nick Marone, is only five years older than actor Jack Wagner, who plays her son.

The Forrester Mansion was modelled after the real-life mansion of series’ creators William J Bell and his wife, Lee Phillip Bell.

Brooke Logan was also played by Catherine Hickland in 1987 when Katherine Kelly Lang was on sick leave, and by Sandra Ferguson in 1997 when Katherine was on maternity leave.
