- A former au pair and model, Jytte Stensgaard emigrated to the UK in 1963, hoping to have a successful international film career. Changing her name to the slightly easier to pronounce "Yutte" Stensgaard she ironically didn't make her debut in a British film, but in the Italian movie The Girl with a Pistol (1968) (Girl with a Pistol) which did have some British backing. She then went on to appear in various British movies, mainly of the comedy or horror genre, most famously the lead role in Lust for a Vampire (1971), as well as several television guest roles.
She also got a six-month stint hosting a game show with British king of comedy, Bob Monkhouse. After struggling with myopic casting directors, who could not see the beauty and budding talent before them and were happier to just keep casting more established but less beautiful women, Yutte finally gave up and emigrated to the USA in the mid-seventies and took up a job selling air time for a Christian radio station in Oregon.
Understandably reluctant to make appearances at horror conventions when British film publicists finally started to notice her when it was too late, she did relent and start appearing at a select few in the late 1990s, giving the non-fickle amongst her fans a chance to see her unique radiance once more.
An inimitable beauty the likes of which has never been seen since, Yutte Stensgaard was possibly the biggest loss to movies since that of Sharon Tate. - Director

Jørgen Vestergaard was born on 10 April 1939 in Thisted, Jutland, Denmark. He is a director and writer, known for Vagt ved havet (1965), Et liv på landet (2000) and Miseri mø (1989).- His parents ran a farm. After graduating from high school in 1972, Rasmussen studied economics in Aarhus until 1978, where he received a master's degree. As a student he became interested in politics. In 1973 he joined the state board of Venstre, the Liberal Party, where he initially served until 1978. From 1974 to 1976, Rasmussen also served as state chairman of the Young Liberals.
From 1978 to 1987 he worked as an economic advisor for the Danish Association of Medium and Small Industrial Enterprises. At the same time, Rasmussen was elected to the Folketing, the Danish parliament, for the first time in the fall of 1978. From 1984, Rasmussen was again a member of the Venstre state board, and he was promoted to deputy party chairman a year later. In the Folketing he was a member of the Venstre parliamentary group leadership from 1984 to 1987.
In 1987, Rasmussen joined Poul Schlüter's government as Minister for Taxes, in which he also took over the office of Minister for Economic Affairs in 1990, but resigned from it in 1992. From 1992 to 1998, Rasmussen, as one of the Venstre faction leaders, also acted as party spokesman in parliament. After the Liberals Venstre's renewed electoral defeat in 1998, which was accompanied by a clear shift to the right in the political situation in Denmark, he rose to become chairman of the party.
After 1998, Rasmussen appeared in the Folketing as opposition leader and as deputy chairman of the foreign policy committee. As a result of the early elections in November 2001, the Liberal Venstre Party formed a coalition with the Conservatives that same month. Since then, under Prime Minister Rasmussen, the Danish government has relied on the support of the right-wing Danish People's Party in the Folketing. In 2007 he successfully ran as head of government for the third time.
