beverley kirk as annette powell in homicide

I don't know much about Beverley Kirk (neither does IMDB, who uses for instance a picture of someone else to illustrate her meagre entry). She has a few minor newspaper mentions in the 1960s that indicates merely that she was an actress who seemed to get some decent theatre and radio drama roles in the 1960s and that was roughly it (nothing after 1968 that I can see). I think she was on Homicide a few times before this and a few times after. But I really feel like this role - of Annette the two-up gangster's moll in 'One-Eyed Luck' - was written for her. And she plays it to the hilt, thanks Beverley. 

Annette has a relationship with the big swinging dick in the two-up scene, Al, but Johnny has his eye on her, and tries to impress her by showing her the place he is going to have his two-up joint. It does impress her actually and she agrees to be a part of it. 

This is where Al crashes the scene and breaks it up. Yes. Al is played by Roger Climpson of all people. Of all people. 

This is the scene where Al tells Annette he is going to lie down, and that she will be compelled to join him. She doesn't though because Johnny crashes into the place and shoots Al many, many times. Spoiler sorry. You should have watched it in 1967. 

This is the scene where Mack hands Annette the letter Johnny wrote her from prison before he killed himself. 

And she admits to Mack that it's not that she doesn't have a family but that she has one in Stawell and she left because she didn't get on with her dad. Mack suggests she go back to Stawell and have another go. 

 Good ep. 

Competing opinion from the SMH 1 May 1967 p. 13:

Curiously there is no listing for this episode in The Age but presumably it was screened in Melbourne a little earlier in 1967. 

This was in the Sunday Sun-Herald 28 August 1966 p. 123. 

This was the last mention I could find of her in the newspapers, broadcast 19 March 1968. Either she changed her name or just gave up on acting altogether. (Age Green Guide, 16 May 1968 p. 8.)
