Born in Arundel, Sussex, in 1948, Judy's father moved the family to London when she was 10 years old and enrolled her and sister Sally Geeson into the Corona Academy, Chiswick. Judy initially wanted to be a ballet dancer but had to change course when she suffered from terrible headaches as a result of some of the moves. Acting had always been a great interest, however, and she chose to pursue this, making her first TV appearance in Dixon of Dock Green (1955) aged 12. Her first major film role was as wayward teenager Pamela Dare opposite Sidney Poitier in To Sir, with Love (1967) at the age of 18.
After a very successful film run during the 1960s and 1970s, Judy took a trip to the US in October 1984, choosing to stay on for a while. By May 1985 she had met and married Kristoffer Tabori and moved to California. However, the marriage had broken down by 1989. Despite this, Judy chose to stay in the US, making her home in Los Angeles.- James G. Hoosier was born in 1952 in West Arundel, Maine, USA.

He served in the Royal Navy from 1972-1980 as a Search and Rescue helicopter pilot. He was based first on the aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal and later at RNAS (Royal Naval Air Station) Culdrose near Helston in Cornwall. He was involved in rescuing numerous civilians during his time at Culdrose, including yachtsmen who were taking part in the infamous 1979 Fastnet race when many of the yachts were hit by a storm on 13-14 August of that year. He received numerous commendations and decorations over the years, and by the age of 25 he was the most decorated peacetime naval pilot in history. In the 1982 New Year's Honours he was awarded an Air Force Cross (AFC) by the Queen for outstanding gallantry in search and rescue. He has described his experiences in his autobiography "Rescue Pilot: Cheating the Sea".
When he left the Navy in 1980 he moved to Liskeard, Cornwall, to join garage owner Roy Flood and Navy colleague and helicopter pilot Keith Thompson in setting up Castle Air, a helicopter charter company that later achieved fame for supplying helicopters G-BHXU (skyrunner, flown by Keith Thompson) and G-SPEY (communications, flown at different times by Jerry Grayson, Michael Malric-Smith, Geoff Newman and Ian Durston) which were used extensively in the TV series Treasure Hunt (1982).
