Seeking your help o' wise group.
I am a member of an Eldorado (BBC sun and sangria soap) fan club, yeah
I know what you're gonna say but to each their own and all that...
We are desperately trying to locate Kathy Pitkin who played Fizz
Charlson and all but dissapeared off the face of the earth after she
was axed from the show. We know she was born in 1976, in Sheffield and
was educated at Myrtle Springs School, we heard a rumour that after
Eldorado ended she worked for the Royal Opera House in London, beyond
that we know nothing...
If anyone knows what happened to her and what she is doing now, even
if it is a vague recollection of having heard something, please please
please leave a message.
Thanks for taking the time to read this post...
Best wishes and Marry Christmas

Seriously?

Looking on IMDB, she's clearly been busy (!)

Ah, every episode of Eldorado on VHS, and proud of it.

Just read the message from Absurd and that's the best offer I've heard
in a long time...
As for stalking her as some suggested, nah of course not, wouldn't be
a very good stalker considering I haven't seen in her ten years lol.
But seriously, like I said there are a number of people out there who
are still passionate about the show (every show has it fans I guess)
we try to keep in touch with the actors are doing these days, like
someone suggested we tried all the usual places friends reunited etc..
I happen to come from Sheffield where Kathy lived (or lives) and I
used to see occasionally...
As for Kathy's dad...I believe his name is Terry and he was a stage
manager on Eldorado - If the poster who replied could just ask him how
she is these days myself, and the group would be enternally gratefull.
Thanks for all who replied to the message...
The search could soon be over

Mark goes:

I thought Fizz was one of the Tweenies.

What's she been doing lately, then? I thought I saw her in Daniel
Deronda. But I could be mistaken. I was diving for the remote at the
time.

Yes, with large fries after her pop career hit the rocks and she achieved a
career change.

Thanks for the messages so far received,
I hope that 'absurd' will get intouch again as he has offered a
glimmer of hope us Eldorado fans have had in a long time, it would
fantastic if you could ask Kathy's dad how she is and whats she
doing..
I'm suprised that people even responded and expected some 'sarcastic'
messages but everyone has been great, many thanks, as for 'there's
fizz in pepsi' - there aren't words for that level of reply are
there??

Take care one and all and many thanks..
