Cleo Rocos (b. 1966)

Birthplace:
Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

Born:
July 24, 1966

Born in Brazil to an English mother and Greek father, Cleo Rocos shot to fame in the 1980s with the BBC series The Kenny Everett Television Show. Her glamorous and curvaceous figure was often used to comic effect and she proved the perfect foil to Kenny, appearing alongside him in the science quiz series Brainstorm, playing a white-coated lab assistant in 1988 and his film Bloodbath at the House of Death in 1984. Since Everett's death from AIDS in 1995, Rocos has published her memoir about working with him, Bananas Forever - Kenny and Me and appeared in several celebrity reality TV productions. She is also a producer, travel journalist, radio DJ, presenter and a businesswoman, launching her own premium brand of tequila called AquaRiva in 2012, made from 100% 'Weber Azul' agave

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
