Biography

    Katya was born in Germany on New Years' day 1948 as Kathja Wyeth. She moved to England, changed her last name to Katya around 1970 to Anglicize it and picked up a British accent. If British TV needed a sexy woman for a quick scene during the late 60s and early 70s she was the girl. If Hammer needed a sexy nude scene then Katya was really the girl. She had no problem appearing nude and was so comfortable with her body that she did a nude pictorial in Gallery's March 1973 issue. No matter how many times you have seen ACO you certainly have seen her without never knowing who she was. It took many years, until I found the cast sheet from the ACO press kit, before I found out exactly which role she played. She was the girl Alex rolls around with in the final scene of the film. She looks like she is having fun and since she is on top, so I wouldn't say it was rape. In the deleted scene he chased her down and in the call sheets it was called rape fantasy. It was shot at the Dashwood Mausoleum, then later at a hanger and Malcolm McDowell said they had a lot of fun filming that scene. I can imagine why. She also played a sexy girl in two episodes of Monty Python episodes basically doing the same joke. She would come in, say a pun and the man would say that wasn't funny and she would cry because it was her only line. It wasn't until "Straight on Till Morning" that she got a chance at a real role instead of just bit parts like these. Through the 70s she did movies and TV roles here and there.
    After the collapse of the British film industry in the late 70s like many she was basically forced to leave acting and I was told as of 2002 she gives tours at a Scottish Whiskey plant and people have no idea she was once an actress. I don't know which plant it is though.
