Paul Hollis was my uncle who died with his partner and their baby Jade. Like my sis Sam Lowrie I didn't know about this site. It's a lovely tribute to Victoria. Thank you for including my family too. There is not a day when I don't think about them all. Thank you RIP xxxxxx

I am the niece of Paul Hollis and did not know this site existed. It was the anniversary this month of all their deaths and I sincerely hope Victoria's family are well and my thoughts are also with her ex boyfriend.

Time does not heal, you just learn to live with it. Sam xx RIP - miss you more than words can ever express, (mits, gorgeous and baby xxx)

It's amazing how many likeminded people there are! I've just plucked up the courage to watch Threads again since seeing it during 1984 and then 1985 (since banned until recently by the BBC).

Still as harrowing as it was back then. I also searched for the cast on the internet, and was saddened to hear of Victoria's death.

I watched Threads in the mid 1980s here in New Zealand and recently watched it again on Youtube. Utterly stunning film and so bleak and hopeless it took me by surprise. Victoria played her part perfectly: sad, unemotional and merely existing in a nightmarish world.

Hi haunted by the film threads during the 80's and have now got round to watching it again. Victoria's performance was outstanding, please keep the site going.

Thanks

i had randomly came across threads and it had shocked me, because at the time my uni was close to a munitions manufacturer, and an various military facilities, if there were to be a war then these will be prime targets..i was very surprised to hear that this actor has died so young, she will be missed

I stumbled upon your site quite by accident. The TWoP thread suggested Threads as a movie that would "scar you for life." Interested, I looked up the film and found it available on Google. Needless to say, it was incredibly compelling.

Afterwards, I looked up the cast and clicked on Victoria to see what she'd been up to in the intervening years. Her performance was captivating, so I was curious about her acting career as I felt she had a great career ahead of her.

Needless to say, I was caught by surprise and saddened to see that she had died so tragically and at such a young age. So sad to read.

Thanks for the site; she would have been grateful I'm sure.

Fare thee well, Victoria. I wish we could have seen all you had to offer.

i just watched threads on google video. now i'm even more depressed to see this beautiful girl has passed away so long ago and so young. tragic.

Hmmm... it's very strange but recently I started thinking back to a film I once saw on the BBC. I was 9 years old at the time and the only thing I remembered about it was a nuclear explosion. It took me a bit of searching but I eventually found out it was called Threads.

What I find strange is that all these other comments are from around the same date as when I started thinking about this film again. I wonder if it was something we had all seen that reminded us of it.

As one of the imdb reviews said "An ever lasting impact".

I'd looked up almost all the other cast and eventually came to Victoria's character and was surprised to see she had her own website. I was even more surprised to hear she had passed away.

Thanks, Graham, for the extra light you've shed on how she passed away.

R.I.P Victoria

I remember Victoria O'Keefe at Dewsbury college (circa 1988?) I also knew Sharon Hickling and "Mallet" who was driving the car that killed them.

R.I.P to all :-(

I have just watched threads and being very moved by the movie i surched the internet for infomation on the actors involved. Jane was the only real hope for the future in the film and Victoria's performance was wonderfull. I was faily depressed by the bleackness of the film and now am very saddened to discover Victoria died so young and so tragically. I don't know what to do now. This site is important, please keep it running.

I watched Threads as a 12 year old and it stuck with me. Just re-watched, it still brings that horror back.

As other have done, I looked up the cast. So sad to see Victoria died so young.

Well done on the site.

I was looking for some information on this fine young actress since seeing Threads for the first time a while ago. This is a great Site. Well done.

I have to say, this site surprised me by its very existence, but during a search for Victoria to find out if she really had died so young, and so tragically, I stumbled upon this wonderful tribute to her. I haven't been able to find any Letty tapes or DVDs yet, but I've been haunted by this beautiful, compelling girl since I saw Threads as a 16 year old in '84.

Thanks for the site. And Victoria, I miss what we could have seen from you.
