For one night only… Joan Collins to perform at Norfolk holiday village
A GLITTERING 60-year showbiz career has taken Dame Joan Collins to many exotic spots – but, until now, not Hopton-on-Sea.

The legendary star of Dynasty is booked for a one-night stand at a Hi-de-Hi! style holiday village overlooking the North Sea in Norfolk.
Dame Joan, who normally divides her time between homes in London, LA and St Tropez, will be the main attraction at a £139 one-night dinner break at Potters Resort on October 2.
The date has been added to her touring one-woman show and will include a question and answer session.
Guests will enjoy her recollections of five marriages and romances with some of Hollywood’s finest – as well as other attractions like line dancing, bingo, a quiz and a Segway Challenge.
It seems unlikely that she will appear at breakfast, shouting: “Hello, campers.”
The 65-acre resort, which offers bungalow and hotel style accommodation, is eagerly promoting Ms Collins’ appearance online: “Potters are delighted to present global icon Joan Collins in her brand new one-woman show Joan Collins Unscripted.
“Get set for stories and secrets from Dame Joan’s long career including a Q&A session.”
Potters lies at Hopton-on-Sea, midway between Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth and was the UK’s first permanent holiday camp in 1920.

It has been run continuously by the Potter family and is Britain’s last privately owned holiday village. Most visitors come from nearby Essex.
We are very proud to be hosting Joan Collins. She is a legend.John Potter
Current owner John Potter insisted last night: “We are not a holiday camp. We are a five-star resort and the RollsRoyce of holiday centres.
“We are very proud to be hosting Joan Collins. She is a legend.”
Dame Joan’s website says: “This all-new show for 2016 provides fans with a once in a lifetime opportunity to spend an intimate, entertaining and unforgettable evening in the company of a true Hollywood legend.
“Dame Joan will visit 13 towns and cities in September and October.”
Other venues lined up include Brighton, Birmingham Edinburgh and the London Palladium.
Audiences can expect racy anecdotes from Dame Joan, whose film career included adaptations of her novelist sister Jackie’s best-sellers like The Stud and The Bitch. Jackie died last year aged 77.
Her life off-camera has been as dramatic as it was playing super-bitch Alexis Carrington in Dynasty.
