"...Hilda's film debut came later. She had to wait until 1934 before she appeared on celluloid, Java Head with the mysterious Anna May Wong in the lead. A succession of further screen credits followed, thirty-five in all. It was the stage, however, that remained her true passion. She always insisted that there was nothing better than a live audience and so she never persued an active film career. It would be impossible to list all of her stage credits.
In 1968, she played Mrs Bedwin and toured Japan with Oliver!, hence missing out on the chance to play the character on film. Her part was taken by Meg Jenkins. When there wasn't any stage or screen work, Hilda modelled. She was one of the oiriginal models for Burberrys.
During the mid 1950s, she moved into television, and during the early 1970s took a recuring role in the popular British soap opera Crossroads. Her last television appearance of late was her role as Mrs Stevens in the BBC sit-com Waiting For God with Stephanie Cole..."
