Kate OMara August 10,1939 – March 30, 2014 British actress Kate OMara, best known for her role in the 1980s soap opera Dynasty, died Sunday at the age of 74, her agent said. Phil Belfield said OMara died in a nursing home in southern England after a short illness. The actress, who began her television career in the 1960s, became a household name for playing Cassandra Caress Morrell, sister to Joan Collins Alexis Colby, in Dynasty. In Britain she is often remembered for her role in Triangle — a soap opera set aboard a North Sea ferry that is often cited as the worst piece of British television. She also appeared in the original run of British series Doctor Who and BBC drama Howards Way. In the 1990s she starred in the comedy show Absolutely Fabulous with Joanna Lumley. More recently she appeared in a 2012 stage adaptation of Agatha Christies Death on the Nile. She is survived by her sister, actress Belinda Carroll.
