Legacy
Her death is referred to in a 1984 song, "Good Day", featured on the Word of Mouth album by the Kinks; it includes the following lines: "The headlines say that Diana is dead/She couldn't act much, but she put on a show/She always smiled, even when she felt low/I used to fancy her a long time ago." A decade before Diana Dors's death, she was name-checked by the New York Dolls in their song "It's Too Late," on their album Too Much, Too Soon. Diana Dors was portrayed by Keeley Hawes (younger) and Amanda Redman (older) in the 1999 TV biopic The Blonde Bombshell.
